Liked: Cleanliness
The accommodation here is very cheap, and the property condition, staff presence, etc, is in line with that. Not an insult - just realistic. Aging and very dark inside, but clean. Guests should bring their own blankets in cold weather, as it gets VERY chilly. The only issue we had was the lack of guest parking. Otherise, it fulfilled all our requirements.

My room was clean and neat. The manager was very friendly and kind. The hostel was quiet and fairly peaceful. Some things were overlooked like bathroom cleanliness and lack of toilet paper. But otherwise the location was perfect and it suited my needs

We stayed here for a night. The Checkin process was a lil bit of a hassle, it was a lil tough to find the place too. The shared bathrooms were not very clean, it was super cold but we were provided heaters. Overall an okay stay but I would not go back.

My room and bed were both small but clean. Shared shower and toilets very basic and not so clean. I was a sole female traveller and felt insecure. This may have been a misconception but enough to mean I wouldn't choose to stay here again.

Ok but not ideal in winter

Friendly staff and nice atmosphere, but the room was really cold (we stayed there in July) and you could hear a lot from the corridor and neighbouring rooms. The toilets and shower room was also quite cold and could use freshening up.

The common areas are dated (especially the main eating hall), the common carpets are dated and most things are a bit worn. It’s pretty basic.

Nice place; but the bunk beds were extremely loud which makes getting up in the middle of the night sound like a klaxon alarm. Just hope you dont need to drink some water or go to the toilet while on the top bunk :)

People would just walk in in the middle of the night, it seemed like there was no cut off for booking times or showing up.. however if I wanted accommodation I’d just rock up at any minute of the night..

The key didn't work properly in the lock which was already known to the staff but they didn't seem concerned to do anyting about it. The bunk beds creaked so loudly. In shared accomodation it would wake everyone up. The beds were very uncomfortable. They had a kitchen but no spoons.

this room worked pretty well for me. the building is a huge building, and appears to be an old (1950s?) boarding house - if you have any interest in architecture you will like its characteristics. the room did not have its own en-suite, but the shared toilets and showers were ok. every other room started at double the cost! the manager was Ron, and he was helpful.
