Liked: Close to the railway stationFree CoffeeThe Staff at the Hostle tried ahard to make your stay friendly

Disliked: The Hostel is situated on a main road and the nosie levels from the trams makes it extremely difficult to sleep. The Hostel was located in a building that was dingy and has no communal areas eg kitchen or lounge. So in real terms you are getting a bedroom though clean and plesent Breakfast while provided was limited to say the least

Liked: Pro:Nice and clean 'deluxe' room with private toilet and bathroom. Staff is extremely helpful and kind. The wireless Internet is the best I've enjoyed regarding every hostel/motel/hotel I was ever in. Café and tea is available for free all day which is pretty nice.Contra:The noise from the road outside is nearly unbearable day and night also. We couldn't even watch TV as we didn't hear its voice. Breakfast is very monotonic (chocolate Pain d'Or croissant all day, really!!!).

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
