I didn’t love my stay here, even though everything was clean and the staff were lovely. I stayed in a 12 bed mixed dorm, with a very very slow to close squeaky door. With the usual people coming and going throughout the night, this made for a few really terrible nights of sleep. I mentioned it to reception who seemed like it was out of their hands to fix- pack earplugs for your stay here! Otherwise no issues at all, and very well located.

Not too bad. Toilets could’ve been better cleaned. It can get noisy, especially if you’re on the window side.

the hotel has a good location, all major sights are around. the room is neat and has separated shared bathroom. The only drawback is that it may be a little noisy outside during nights.

Great hostel with good facilities and friendly staff. The rooms are nice with plenty of space (make sure you remember to bring a lock) and comfy beds. The shower and toilet facilities are great and well looked after by staff. The bar downstairs did good food and drinks with a discount for people staying at the hostel. Breakfast is a simple continental with cereal and toast but it got the job done.

Couldn't sleep because there were people partying all night regardless of day and time. My roommates were very respectful, lived in a female corridor but despite this there were men running around the corridors making noise. U**awful location, but this hostel is better suited to party fare than people who want some peace and quiet.

Awful place. I have stayed in a hostel before, but this one in particular was the worst that has happened to me. There was no ventilation at all from the windows which were permanently closed and there was no way they could be opened as they were boarded up, with the result that the air in the common sleeping area was a cocktail of germs, filth and dirt. You slept and breathed the breaths of thousands of people who had slept there before you in a room that had double doors and no windows. My daughter and I got sick. I don't advise you to go. You are in danger. They also want money if you want a towel, or a charger for your phone. Away!!!
