Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The walls are unfortunately reasonably thin so it’s possible to hear stuff going on in the hallway or the room next door. However the outside walls are pretty well soundproofed so very little noise from busy streets below. Pretty standard backpackers atmosphere with people awake at all hours but, the people living there currently seemed lovely. Would stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was a great location but unfortunately that was all that was good about this place. Beds were uncomfortable, stains on under pillows and generally unclean. It was very loud with people drinking and partying in the communal kitchens. Kitchens were very busy and not very clean. No room in fridges and utensils were few and far between. No where to store larger bags/suitcases. You can get your own room with an en suite just down the road for only a few pounds more!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Reserve y pague por adelantado una habitacion para 2 personas. Cuando llegue al alojamiento, primero querian cobrarme nuevamente porque decian que no estaba pago, por mas que les mostraba la copia impresa de la reserva pagada, y hasta el estado de cuenta de la tarjeta de credito donde constaba el pago. Luego de eso me decian que mi reserva era en una habitacion de 8. Por mas que les mostre el comprobante, me decian que el error era de hotels.com. llame a hotels.com y tampoco me solucionaron el tema. Nadie se hizo cargo del error, y terminaron poniendome en la PEOR habitacion del alojamiento, ni siquiera el encargado tuvo la habilidad de manejar el tema y bus
