Reviews of City Backpackers Hostel

01 December 2011

Liked: It's easy to get to from the main station, the shower is nice, the beds are okay. Everything is average though, I didn't enjoy my stay to be honest.

Disliked: It's extremely over priced and they charge for your bed sheets separately. The showers are nice but there's no privacy in them, there was no way to control the temperature in the room. The lockers are all downstairs so even if your room is on the ground floor you need to carry your suitcase downstairs. The showers are all downstairs so you need to walk around the entire place every time you're going to shower. Check in is at 2pm which is extremely late, and check out is at 10am, that means for every night you pay (which is not at all cheap) you get 20 hours in the room, not even a full day! That's terrible.

25 November 2011 Nicole would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel was pretty close to the main hub of shopping and eating, although the cool little local bars are quite a hike away. The staff were very helpful, especially the English girl, and nothing was too much trouble. There is a little cafe next door that is open in the morning for breakfast, very handy!

Disliked: Unfortunately during our stay there was no internet working, which makes it hard to book the next leg of a trip, so we just had to go to an internet cafe. Everything else was good.

20 November 2011 Jordan would recommend this property

Liked: Was an amazing hostel, great location, mostly friendly staff, very clean good atmosphere

Disliked: 2 incidents. They have a rule where u must take ur shoes off inside. fair enough i didnt mind, but i left my shoes in the locker provided and they were stolen. not really the hostels fault and the staff were helpful in the issue but think would be benificial if they had a camera around that area so i new what happened. secondly on my last night the night porter told us at 9 oclock if we could please be quiet in the main area when it hit 11pm. then at about 12pm she came back and was very rude about kicking us out saying we should have been gone at 11pm. i moved straight away but i wish she didnt attack us in the way she did. thought it was a little extreme and uncalled for.

30 October 2011 GEORGIOS would recommend this property

Liked: 1) free Internet 2) free pasta 3) quiet when sleeping etc

Disliked: One woman of the staff (that cleansroom) took 1 tower and 1 t-shirt of my friend but maybe it was not her mistake because she had paper that 3 bed (including this of my friend) were empty. Finally he found the tower but NOT the t-shirt. Also something similar happened the last day...I hope this was just a mistake again because general we were pleased form the Hostel.
