Very clean and close to everything
The hostel is one of the nicest I have stayed at, clean and central enough to walk to most things. I did find it odd that I couldnt get an early check in, when they do not even make the beds. Not only do have to make your own bed (top bunk is not easy) but you strip them as well upon check out and put the sheets in bins. So how hard would it have been to allow someone in an hour or two early? I used the hostel as a jumping spot to other places and had early flights so spent very little time here. Staff was patient, and willing to help for most thing's. This not a hostel for partiers, and I would almost say for people with early morning flights: I packed my bag in the hall to avoid breaking the rules during quiet time.

Good value for money
Very good value for money- clean and great central location. We stayed in room no. 10 which admittedly was a bit noisy, facing the street and at street level plus wedfed in between the kitchens and across from the laundryroom! As I travel with earplugs it did bot bother me though and I would recommend staying here.

Functional, right on the money, but lacks character. If you don;t look for it, then it will work for you just fine

Great hostel for location and cleanliness, but it’s quite big and doesn’t have a social area. I found it hard to meet other travelers.

Good hostel (we got the private room with shared bathroom) close to bus station so not most beautiful street but walking distance to everything worth seeing, no elevator or automatic entrance doors so not the most convenient if carrying suitcases but staff are helpful and I think backpackers enjoy their stay there

COCOON MORE LIKE HOVEL
Peter, owner was aggressive and vainly pressured me to claim a refund from the shop I purchased luggage from after the inadequate locker in my dormitory ripped my new case because it is has sharp fixtures. He claimed his family business would eat out of their profits to recompense me back £30 then threw me out when I refused a goodwill breakfast! He became aggressive and would've resorted to violence if another witness wasn't around. He also wouldn't address my asthmatic condition when overnight I suffered passive smoking due to atmospheric ingestion from poor ventilated room despite roommates smoking on balcony. I suffered serious respiration that required keeping the French door open but that allowed loud street noise causing complaints which Peter callously focused on. It was all about money!
