Ramilton Old Town Hostel

DIRTY!!!! No cleaning service: in the three days that I stayed I always saw the same dirt around: Used underwear hanging, used paper on the floor (everywhere, even in the corridor), beard hairs on the only bottle of soap, on the sink and on the sink counter... When on the second day I asked to the reception guy when it should be cleaned, I was told that it had been cleaned the day before (absolutely false since the dirt was always in the same position) and that they had been cleaning at that moment for two hours... (and the only thing I saw done was emptying the bins, by two quite ambiguous people who live in the hostel and the previous evening were drinking alchool in the common all that for sure are no cleaning service staff)... all the dirt was left there. There is no one at reception before 10am or after 6pm. The telephone number doesn't even work, so absolutely don't arrive late Tiny rooms, THE PHOTOS ARE FAKE, there are two bunk beds less than a meter apart. IF you are taller than 1.70 meters you risk continually banging your head against doors, low bathroom vaults and pipes protruding everywhere As if that wasn't enough they ask for 10 euros for sheets and you have to pay if you want to use the locker. only two positive things: 1-being underground (without windows) and with quite thick walls it is quite quiet 2-it's in the center

The location of the hostel is perfect. It’s in the middle of the historical city. The hostel self is not too bad but the people in the hostel are most some Swedish homeless ************ what is really uncomfortable. The price is very fair but the next time I would pay more and I leave the hostel in the night.

The location is great but the room is not as good as pictures shown, you can have better choice with similar price. There’s no staff after 1800 and the hostel in underground so you can’t flush the tissue in the toilet, otherwise it gets stuck. And one thing to note, if you’re with big luggage, there’s a stair at the entrance in the hostel.

Nice bed

This was a really nice hostel. We contacted the reception through email before our arrival because our train was running late and we were gonna miss the check in time. They were quick in their response and gave us clear instructions on how to enter the building, how to collect our room key and how to settle payment the following day. The moment we walked in we thought it was lovely. The entrance was really nice and the hostel seemed quiet! We got to our room and it was really nice. The room and beds were clean and comfortable. Each bed had a light and plug socket. The toilets were down the hall which is the only issue I had! The next day we spoke with the receptionist who was so chatty and lovely and told us a lot about the hostel. We learned that it was getting refurbished and that it used to be a prison a long time ago and you can tell with the structure of the building! The hostel had a kitchen and lounge area with a tv also. Overall, I would recommend this hostel. I think once the refurb is done it will be even better than it is and I definitely would come back!

Can really do with some cleaning. And can at least provide soap so people could wash their hands in the bathroom. There was none when I was there at all.
