Small park opposite and staff are very friendly. Be prepared that there is no tables or safes in the dorm, there is wash basin, shower room and beds only. Toilets on every floor. It’s a nice place to stay the nights. Consider kitchen non exist but you can use a kettle to boil water for your own bottle. Value for money, it suits me and I am happy ##### Kang Stayed 10 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mohamed May 27, 2025 👌 ##### Mohamed Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ayodele Jul 7, 2025 Disliked: Amenities The toilets could be better supplied and clean on more regular basis. The room was attended/ tidied up just once a week..! Unacceptable. ##### Ayodele Stayed 15 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### SEITARO Nov 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was well-cleaned and I had a comfortable stay. ##### SEITARO Stayed 28 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ayodele Sep 30, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The toilets were always filthy early in the morning, on all floors 1st , 2nd 3rd floors. Often there are no antibacterial hand washes, no toilet roll in the cubicles, the corridors are freezing cold. The toilets on the 4th floor were well looked after as it belongs to the staff who work on the premises and also live there. Quite frankly this hostel needs to be inspected by Health Inspectors, it is just a matter of time before there would be health scare or major disease outbreak! There grown men who use the loo and just walk out without washing their hands! And walk through 3 -5 doors to get to their rooms touching the door knobs and even going straight to the kitchen! Can you imagine this ? It is shocking! The Security is inefficient, as anyone Tom, Dick and Harry walks in & out without being challenged. You have to make sure your rooms are locked at all times , or else your belongings might be stolen ##### Ayodele Stayed 28 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles May 24, 2024 Good transport links ##### Charles Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 31, 2022 Liked: Staff & service #### Will stay again Pleasant check in. Room was bigger than in any other hostel. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Hayley Jul 2, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property is cheap for a reason. Initially I thought it was reasonable since I just needed a bed after a gig, nothing fancy. But the kitchen was really inadequate with the fridge in a lounge on the opposite side of the building. It's very unclean and very few utensils. I was in a dorm of six and there were only two plug sockets. The door locks felt like they might snap off. There's a sign when you enter saying "online bookings don't guarantee a place" so be careful with your plans. To top it all off I've come home covered in bites. ![Bites](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2070c353-5caa-41c3-97bb-ec51281e1c76-1751442622236.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Hayley Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aaron Jan 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place to stay for the money If you’re looking for a place to rest your head at night, then this place is perfect.
