Liked: this property was located in the good place were my family and I could walk few meters to weekend market, the toilets, shower room, kitchen, TV area and rooms were clean. Importantly there were no noise upstairs were the accommodations where, all was at peace. The staff were friendly, they even offered to clean our rooms whilst we were still living in the rooms, Good customer services. In the kitchen all cooking utensils were available, We were more at home. We like especially kids. They made friends with the other tourists who were living in the same property with us. SAME ONE.

Disliked: No

Liked: Good atmosphere, good food, cheap drink and brilliant entertainment every night. Location was amazing, in the centre of everything.

Disliked: I didn't like the shared toilets and showering area. Not enough for the amount of people staying at the hostel and not always the cleanest.

Liked: Shenanigans was a very good Hostel. The rooms were clean, tidy and friendly. The staff was absolutely friendly and helpful. They were a very helpful contact for any form of problem (including all tour bookings). The location is perfect, you really need only five minutes to the esplanade and the harbour. Grocery shopping was easy as well, because Woolworth is very close. All in all a great hostel!

Disliked: Because of the location above a pub, it was very loud in the evening, which was sometimes a little bit disturbing. But you know this before, so it's ok!

Liked: The atmosphere and the people that stayed there as everyone was around the same age (under 25), the location was great, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the airport shuttle was great!

Disliked: The room was very basic but it was clean and liveable in, other guests stayed up really late and could get a bit rowdy and loud but nothing earplugs can't sort out!
