It was nice and clean and pretty safe and secure. No problems although the staff weren't always at the desk during reception hours.

Made a booking, informed about my arrival after 10pm . Arrived, no one there, had to ask other people to let me in, then was phonning on a phone given, no one answered. Left messages, no reply. Finaly after 45 mins, someone answer, hardly could understand as the person as ina pub. Gave me other night person number, was phonning again, answered with a backgroud noise in a pub. good staff having nice time out when should be working. Finaly gave me the room number, no bedding, nothing. In the morning complained to the staff, cancel my 4 night booking and refused to pay the night I stayed as a trump.

Good location but needs refurbishment. Bed was very uncomfortable-springs nearly poking through mattress.

The best thing about the hotel is the cheap rate in a great location that is hard to beat, but you have to deal with bathrooms that are not the cleanest, roommates that are the partying, immature, type and noise from the streets. For a traveller more interested in meeting intelligent, more socially aware people, this place can get depressing and soul numbing.

Close to Bars and partying with a good way to meet people with a rooftop patio and nice common room with lots of space and good TV.
