Liked: Staff is very helpful (with an already excepeted exception), location is great

Disliked: very, very noisy. if you dont have earplugs, be ready to stay awake during the nights. also, due to reservation issues, you will probably have to change rooms several times during your stay

Liked: Lovely small place with nice character and we really love the rooftop area.Only gripe we have is that we had a room on the street side, and the buses go past 24/7 and they are quite loud - not so nice if you are a light sleeper. having said that, it is quite easy to get buses :)The free internet is pretty crap.

Liked: Nice hostel in a really good location, close walking distance to all the main sights. Staff were friendly, rooms were nice. Only downside was fans rather than air con made the room pretty hot. You can smoke in all the common areas which is great if you are a smoker, but terrible if you are not & want to eat a meal without breathing in other people's smoke, but that's BA for you!

Liked: Beware if you book via the Internet - I booked a room for 4 people but ended up in a room for 6 (as did several others). Also when I came to pay they tried to charge more than the price shown on the internet.
