The hostel is a busy spot. We had a private room. It was clean and comfortable. There were scuffs on the walls from heavy use. I suspect that they are full every night. Staff and guests are very friendly and helpful. We slept very well. There was a heatwave and we were still comfortable without AC

Overall A&O represents the modern hostel, cheap accommodation, but no spirit. They haven’t updated their self-check in to accommodate Expedia which would have helped them out as they were swamped at check- in, but the staff on hand seemed to manage. Their common area washroom was under repair and the shower head in my bathroom shower could only point to the wall and nowhere else. Everything else was good though, but don’t expect to meet a lot of people as they don’t push that aspect a lot.

Worth a try

We were very surprised to learn this was a hostel, rather than a hotel. That said, our stay was good. It was close to the train station, Breakfast was good, it was busy with students but overall, it turned out to be a good place to stay.
