Great location, nice shared spaces,...

Liked: The location, the board games, the shared spaces, the room. The staff managed to upgrade us the second night to the 6 bed room, but we almost paid 90£ for this (and we’d already paid 180£). Eventually it was cleared out and we got upgraded for only 3£
Disliked: Bathrooms were a bit eh, which I guess is expected from hostels in general. I couldn’t figure out how to have hot water water running for a long time so I had to fidget and have lukewarm, or it would come in cold and hot waves.

Great value for money

Liked: Staff were super friendly and accommodated my late check-in. There are several rules in place to make your stay as comfortable as possible which I appreciated.
Disliked: There is a shared bathroom with all the rooms on a floor and the ground is always wet from the showers
