The room did not match the photos—everything was quite dated, and the bathroom was noticeably unclean. I even hesitated to take a shower due to the poor condition.

Good location, Very basic surroundings

Budget hostel, in good location. Very cheap and cheerful. Rooms were very basic, but clean. Stayed with family (3 kids), it worked as a place to lay your head. A little noisy at night, plenty of students staying there etc. Overall satisfactory but nothing you'll be writing home about

They have the most helpful staff here. We had all kinds of issues booking and all errors were quickly resolved by the staff. Yes it is a bare bones hostel but could not have been better for our stay.

Where do I begin… As soon as we entered, the front of house staff were welcoming, kind and made us feel right at home. Every morning we were greeted with kind faces and smiles, adding to the safe (stay) experience. Although we were neighbouring some unexpected machinery, we grew to love our atmosphere, it’s hard to complain when you get such luxury for only £20 a pop. Highly recommend, and oh boy did I love that coffee machine. All our love, Molly, Ti & Rosa. <3
