Liked: Localization in interesting district - a lot of street art nerby.

Disliked: Everything, one of the worst hostels ever. A dorm was small, if it's full there's absolutely no space for your things, there are no bulbs in bed lamps, and the ceiling one is so weak, that it barely gives any light. The bed was extremly uncomfortable, I had to use matress from other bed to make it possible to sleep on it. You can't close the door unless you shut them and make a lot of noise. The self-catering kitchen stinks, oh my god, it looks like it hasn't been cleaned for a loooong time. There are no kitchen utensils, the fridge is covered in stainds from liquids and oil, The hostel has a strange demand, and I suppose not really in accordance to law, of keeping guest's ID during the stay. You can spot mould on kitchen and bathroom walls. Receptionists could be informed better about the city, especially when it comes to distances like to the bus station.

Liked: This was an ok hostel. Pub downstairs which is always good, but very noisy and there was a stag night nextdoor which kept us up. Pretty good location, and very helpful staff.

Disliked: No breakfast on offer, and the kitchen stunk. TV room to hang out in, but the tv didn't work when I was there. Unisex toilets/showers.

Liked: Close to the city

Disliked: Lockers downstairs and the woman that booked me in was a bit disinterested and pointed me in the direction of my room. Saw other staff being more courteous so I guess I just lucked out there. Also no wifi in rooms - this was very difficult for me as I work while travelling so had to go to the bar which was not ideal

Liked: Overall it was a good stay, facilities were decent and the location was great for our 2 night stay.

Disliked: The shower heads need de-scaling as they squirt all over the place and make the dry floors around it wet and the pillows, which are giant bean bags are hard to sleep on.

Liked: Very Friendly Staff and facilities clean.

Disliked: Due to being a hostel and people coming and going at different times it can be hard to get to sleep if you are getting up early the next day. However don't let this put you off its a great place to get your head down for a night and good value for money.

Tim Williams

05 April 2010

Liked: Stayed here on Easter Friday, for one night. Girl at reception was great, very helpful and nice. Usual hostel drill. Location was good, we had a car and it was easy to get to. Rooms were secured by fingerprint lock, but lockers were downstairs in communal access area. Beds were thin, crappy mattress, pillows resembled sandbags, not good! Massive party downstairs and in the carpark and outside the window. Super loud till very late. Freezing cold shower with sticky/grungy floor. Otherwise, was a good stopover in town, but would not stay again.

Disliked: Tim left no negative feedback.
