Liked: Staff were really friendly, the rooms were warm and secure, with plenty of storage space available. The kitchen was huge, large dining and recreation areas, friendly guests.There is a bus-stop right outside taking you to town/anywhere.
Disliked: The wifi was £3 for 1hr, you have to activate your access card every day after 12.. meaning a return to the hostel before you go out for the night, but even if you don't, the staff are friendly enough to activate it for you even at 2am! The smoking area is only covered by a tree, so in the very common rain, you will get rather damp!
