05 August 2010

Liked: It was easy to find. The "receptionist" was super helpful, went on Google and found me a list of Indian food places in the area. Got the job done for one quick night in and out, wouldnt stay any longer.

Disliked: All the doors on the rooms slam shut. The beds are squeaky cheap ikea metal frames. I know I should expect this by now, but I still hate it. Mattresses pretty much just box springs. Showers are teeny tiny.

Disliked: They had the squeakiest beds I've ever heard. It was almost impossible to fall asleep as any time anyone in the room moved that bed squeaked.

Liked: showers were very smelly... the bed was extremely average and it's in a noisy location. you certainly get what you pay for - a cheap hostel that is fine for a night or two - don't come expecting high class.

Customer review

27 May 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The property was definitely a cheap sleep in an excellent location - the people all seemed decent and had been staying there for quite awhile. The only thing was that the lounge and bathrooms and showers were a bit manky, and you had to keep pressing every 30 seconds to get water in the shower! So it's really a case of getting what you pay for.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
