Weekend Trip

Communal areas are good, along with the pamper room which we made use of! It was good that they offer double rooms for a bit more privacy, but the pillow was like a sheet of paper; quite uncomfortable. There were communal facilities which were good, but the shower was cold. But honestly, for the price and location I would recommend if you’re looking for a bed for the night.

Jake who checked us in was amazing. A real credit to the hostel. We were sad to learn the bar was closed as we booked this hostel for the bar itself, wish we would've known prior to booking. The bathrooms were filthy and primark pillows could've been better. I understand you get this at a hostel though so overall it was a good stay for the price we paid.

Selfish room mates

Extremely disappointed at the lack of concern other room members have. Coming in at 1.30am and then showering, packing, unpacking plastic bags... floors creak, doors opening and closing are loud... NO-ONE sleeps
