Customer reviewMost of the staff was very friendly and nice. The building though seemed to be in a bad condition, and almost none of the showers were working, and the toilets were overflowing on a daily basis. The lockersystem where you had to pay 1$ every 24 hours wasn't practical at all. The breakfast is mostly good for meeting people, not for having a proper and nourishing start for the day. |

Nicola WyldboreI think its ideally placed, just outside the door is the tram system, which is a really good price. The staff are tremendously helpful and friendly, and theres lockers for long term storage, or a storage room you can use foor free. The bathrooms could do with a renovation tho, and there should be more bathrooms |

Customer reviewLiving over a bar got tiring very quickly. The room was small and dingy with a tiny window so smelled. The female showers on my floor were not working so the entire floor was sharing one shower in a mixed washroom - not something I feel very comfortable doing. The toilets were often blocked for long periods - it did not seem as if staff checked this often. I found it hard to meet people because of their work policy, so many of the residents are long term as they have a job at the hostel - frustrating when you are a traveller. The staff members were nice and there was lots of common areas. The hostel appears to be slowly rennovating which would be nice as, while it's not gross, it's a bit scummy/outdated. |
