Liked: Neat and clean, access controlled dorm rooms, great location, helpful staff, clean washrooms, in-house laundry facilities, I got a free pickup from the airport as well.
Disliked: I would have liked the internet to be less expensive, and the common sitting area to be located away from the reception.

Liked: The location near the station.
Disliked: I realised I don't like these massive chain style hostels. It was quite noisy and you had to pay for everything. Probably suit a younger crowd (less than 21). Stay in Big Hostel instead if you want somewhere central and near the station. It has free wifi and free breakfast and provides the same standard of accomodation as this place.

Liked: We like the central location of the hostel, beside the central station.
Disliked: The toilets were dirty all of the time yet the cleaners were able to hoover the halls at 9am each morning. The blinds did not work in the room so once the sun rose the room was as bright as cold be.

Liked: Very clean, very organised, very fun - lots of things to do and places to sit and chill or meet people. Kitchen was great, tv/chill out area was awesome and the side bar was a great little club to nip into!
Disliked: Absolutely nothing (apart from perhaps it being a little costly)

Liked: Stayed here back in May and again in July, were put back in the same room which was a bit random! Has modern facilities and a great atmosphere. Good location and place to meet people, there is always something going on in Side Bar too.
Disliked: There is only one double socket in the 10 bed dorm room right by the door, is a pain when everyone needs to charge their laptops/phones etc. It would be good to have personal reading lights for each bunk too - the bottom bunks don't get enough light for you to be able to read a book etc. The carpet in the room we stayed in really did need replacing, was pretty dirty and stained in quite a few places. Also didn't like the fact that someone came into our dorm 8.45am and said that the painters were going to be coming in to paint the room in 30 mins time and that we had to move all our stuff out the way. A bit more notice would have been nice and an alternative room offered, as the room would have stunk of paint, as the windows cannot be opened.

Liked: Location is excellent, so were most of the staff! It's definitely a young people's hostel & we are oldies but everyone, staff & guests, were polite & respectful. We found it to be a well-run, efficiently set up hostel. Great use of a lovely old building. BUT bathroom on our floor was cleaned only once daily, late afternoon it seemed, & it certainly needed a good sortout first thing in the morning! THE SHOWERS, however are the BEST I've encountered, anywhere!THANKS, Ryan & team, you're lovely!Oh and we had a great view from our window too. And free shuttle from airport a nice bonus too.
Disliked: See above - bathrooms need to be cleaned more often

Liked: Go for smaller dorms if you don't want to be woken up early in the morning- the 8 was terrible, the 4 bed was brilliant because of this- it's worth the extra if you want some zzz
