Liked: it was fairly new. there is a seperate toilet and shower in the room. the beds are very comfortable and solid (wood), so there is no squeking. the breakfast is quiet good. free wifi.

Disliked: this is a hostel where you will just sleep, because I had the impression that you shouldnt meet people there because you could be loud our something. there usually werent many people around to meet. the cleaning lady came fairly early and because we still were in the room she didnt come back to clean. you need your own lock for the locker. you have to pay (quit a lot) for the internet/computer you can use downstairs (but there is a cheap internet cafe nearby).

Liked: The hostel is pretty well located - it's a short walk from the closest underground and the surrounding neighborhood has lots of cafes and shops. The hostel itself is pretty nice with a shower and bathroom in each room. The staff is really helpful and accommodating. I was impressed by how international the hostel was - there were people from all over Europe, Africa, Australia, and the US. Breakfast is just cereal and rolls, but I wasn't expecting anything gourmet. I'll probably stay here again!

Disliked: I hated having to pay for internet.

Liked: I like the cleanliness of this hostel and the visual corpororate identity appliance all around.Breakfast was not bad though I could not find any regular black tea.

Disliked: the person on the reception desk is not a friendly character at all. (who has a glasses and a little older than others) he snap at me when I took my linens back including my pillow by mistake. anybody could be exhasuted and moony at that hour of the morning. nobody has spoken with me like that before. He should be ashamed about his behaviour. I will bring this situation in the site and all over the hostel sites.

26 June 2010

Liked: Dodgy area - I ended up cabbing home from nights out because I didn't feel safe walking there. Internet is available only for a steep rental price, and rooms are very small (with little room to comfortably fit a suitcase). Felt a lot like a school camp (with no community atmosphere), which was compounded by the fact that it was full of school aged (11 and 12) year old children while I was there.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
