Liked: I liked everything about this hostel! The staff was so friendly and helpful. They have so much fun stuff to do that you could never be bored. It's really a great hostel!

Disliked: The only thing I didn't like is so minor but it's a bummer that you can't bring your own alcohol into the hostel. The drinks there are a bit expensive and they don't have a big selection. But, like I said, such a minor thing in a great great hostel.

10 September 2010 Edward J would recommend this property

Liked: Very friendly atmosphere. Great mix of cultures. No prejudice, just good times and good people. Would like to spend more time here but they are all booked for the weekend. Only one night here and I haven't a bad word to say about anything. Wii, PS3, XBOX360... LOADS of dvd's and even VHS' aswell. No hire fee just good faith in people. Great location and close to the main shopping strips. Security in your room is fantastic, personal lockers and lights for reading etc. Would recommend this place to the Queen :)
