A very nice girl checked me in and she asked if I would prefer a female only room since I was assigned a mixed room. And there were only two of us for six beds. The shower pressure was fabulous and it was perfectly heated water. There was a fair amount of noise in the hallways but luckily it calmed down at a reasonable time. Thank you, A & O: all I hoped for was a good night sleep so it was a great stay.

Hotel was in a great location with easy access to transit. Hotel staff were great! But the hotel is very dirty and rooms looked and smelled like they have never been washed. Dirt all over the walls. Other then that you can’t beat the price and the market is right behind.

At first I was going to leave a bad review. Now I have decided to be fair. If you need a pkace to crash for the nighy that is cheap and cheerful, thos is the one. Staff are great and the facilities are ok. It serves a purpose very well. The smell in the room was rhe other guesys. I will definitely come back again.

Money wise good value.

As for the money the stay was very good. The bed and sheets were fresh, crispy and clean! One minus is the bathroom it does seem not to be cleaned on the daily basis, so if not the bathroom it would have been all 5 stars. Convenient location it is in a walkable distance from train station and centre. Overall if just a little bit more clean bathroom area, then money wise it would be fantastic!

Clean room besides some dust bunnies under the bed. Easy walk from train station and conveniently has an Aldi immediately behind building. Shared kitchen isn’t much- more of a small room where no more than two people can comfortably fit with a microwave, two burners and a toaster. Not ideal for a long term stay or any intensive cooking. Very nice staff who spoke English.

Reasonable single rooms

I took a single room in the hostel. The room and lobby were clean. The single bed was firm. The bathroom was fitted with a nice shower. There is one flight of stairs to reach the entrance. Inside there is a lift. The smoking area is outside the entrance. The hostel is a 10 minute walk to the main train station. Trams to the city Center are a five minute walk away.
