Good value, strange place

Liked: This is a good value stay and the place reflects the cheaper price. The room had a working fridge which was clean on the inside. The kitchen was fairly well equipped, showers were nice and powerful. Staff were pleasant.
Disliked: The hostel is above a kind of greasy-feeling pub and outdoor bar that plays loud music late into the night. Our room was very, very simple, with a bed frame and fridge, but the fridge was covered in dirt and stains. The kitchen was okay, but the markings around the stove and oven controls had worn away completely, so it was really hard to use - you couldn't tell which hob or oven you were turning on, or how hot you had turned it to. No lockers for securing our luggage.
