   Pros- Fridge in room Fairly clean facilities Well equipped kitchen Right in town Cons- Least social/friendly hostel I’ve ever been to. No social events, the reception staff are like mutes- hardly geta word out of them. One odd guy who seems to live there permanently was the only one we spoke to really. Rough area- the roads surrounding are really rough and lots of unsavoury types. Carpets stained Bathroom and kitchen stink Living room is a few shit glass tables and one awful small sofa Tiny room Seems as though all windows in this place give you only the view of another building and it is very claustrophobic Would not go back

   Looks okay at first sight. Old rooms, old buildings, everything looks old. The beds are super comfy and clean, and we slept great the first two nights. But then, on the weekend, the night club right next to the hostel put the music SO LOUD, our room was shaking. It was horrible, impossible to sleep at all. We ran away in the morning. Just don't stay there on weekends, it's awful. The staff was nice and, great point, the kitchen has a lot of things to cook pretty everything.

   To begin with there is no elevator and 3 flights of stairs you need to climb just to get to your room. It isn't a regular hostel experience. There are many long-term residents who are very unwelcoming and stressful to stay with. The amount of noise is super crazy. There is nightly drinking, yelling and loud music inside. The hostel is off K road so you will hear all the karaoke and bar noise from there. This is not the place if you want to rest or relax or chill or just have a decent sleep. Avoid this place and the stress and frustration. Just pick one of the many other accommodations in CBD and enjoy the city.

   I really liked this hostel a lot, I stayed there for 3 weeks. Staff is amazing, all of them honest hard working guys. I always felt safe, welcome and the atmosphere / other guests was super warm and friendly. Good and clean kitchen and bathroom Only disadvantage is the sound insulation especially when room/window is facing K-Road

   Stayed in one of the single rooms with no window. The carpet is a disaster, bedding had stains on. Stayed only one night and won’t return.

   For a hostel it’s great! Great location and comfy rooms. The only thing that I didn’t like was the constant smell of smoke in the hallway entrance at checkin but in room seemed to be fine. Staff super friendly.

   Got a small room without windows, which is exactly what you would expect for the price. The room was really clean and the staff were really nice and helpful. Great location too. I had a work function in the city and really just needed a place to sleep afterwards. This was perfect for that.

   Absolutely wonderful! My first hostel, and I was so grateful for how clean it is! My twin room was the perfect amount of space and privacy, and the bathrooms and kitchens were always very clean. I love the location on K road too. The only complaint I had was that our window was stuck open, so it got very cold at night. But I just got a blanket and layered up - nothing to worry about! :)
