+ The property is very close to everything and has a nice car park right behind it. The kitchen was huge and there was plenty of room for people to sit and eat. Check in was quick and our beds already had sheets on them when we arrived. I want to note that we were a group of six who had a private room, so this review doesn’t reflect the typical hostel sleeping arrangements. Our private room had a lock on it which made us feel very safe about leaving our items while we went out. The property is very close to everything and has a nice car park right behind it.

- My main complaint about this hostel was the showers. The timer on them was very inconsistent. Once when I showered, I had about 30 seconds when I hit the button. Great! The other few times I showered, I had quite literally 5 seconds. This made it incredibly difficult and frustrating to shower and especially to rinse my hair. By the time I turned around after hitting the button, the water would already have turned off. I ended up having to press my elbow onto the button just to try and rinse myself. The water was also very cold several times. My other friends experienced these same issues. My other complaint is that the wall and floor underneath our beds was coated in dust and filth.

+ Big shared kitchen, welcoming staff
− No sockets close to each bed, strange system in shower, where you have to press button each couple minutes to wash yourself

+ Great location. Excellent large kitchen and dining area and another bonus lobby area. Nice staff, very clean
− Room was awful, way too crowded were 12-15 or more people, with beds very close to one another. Seemed like it could be a fire code violation. Staff allowed a couple to be in one of the beds together in this very crowded room, which was highly inappropriate
