Hostel accommodation was basic but certainly good enough for the price. I stayed in a private room and it was fairly quiet. Never had to wait to use the bathroom. They provided free food on Monday evening (rice and chilli con carne) and Wednesday evening (Dominos pizza). Free breakfast was available everyday but it is extremely basic (sliced white bread with a choice of jam, honey and peanut butter, or weetbix). Bar at the hostel is limited and only serves bottled beer. Linen is included (pillow case, bottom sheet, flat sheet). There are also duvets on the bed, but these are not washed between guests. Good location, easy to walk to the centre (about 15 mins). ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2019 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Thu Huong Dec 22, 2018 #### good location very basic room, no free towel, sampoon ... breakfast finishes at 9 AM then they will collect foods and you have nothing to eat if you are late Good location.

Also the 13 shared guestrooms is not very confortable and to tiny, no place for the stuffs. Even if my stuffs was on my bed, the staff has change the sheets and all my stuffs from the bed when I was outside. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Oct 1, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I found the atmosphere very comforting.

Arredamento essenziale, la camera si presentava discretamente pulita all'arrivo a parte gli aloni sulle lenzuola. Gli spazi comuni sono tenuti abbastanza puliti. Colazione offerta al mattino: thè, caffè, pane tostato, marmellata, cereali. La struttura è fredda, ho visto gente girare con il piumino in bagno. Nelle docce non ci sono i dispenser per il sapone quindi andate muniti. Posizione buona per raggiungere il centro. ##### Rossella Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 30, 2018 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort très bonne ambiance avec un personel d'accueil vraiment sympa ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2018 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Karen Feb 14, 2018 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Conveniently located quality hostel accommodation Staff were friendly and helpful, quality and comfort of accommodation was great. Only downer was when one of the toilets wasn't flushing properly, management did not put out a sign out of order nor fix it overnight. Would have been helpful to have bins available for rubbish in room. Street noise can be a bit noisy in evenings when window kept open all night. ##### Karen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cuong Nov 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fun Tuesday night Dinner and game night provided.

La chambre est correcte, le lit très comfortable et les gens très biens. Le personnel est 50/50, souvent au gré de ses humeurs mais tout est toujours pour le mieux. Attention, la cuisine affiche des heures d'ouverture et fermeture surtout qui ne sont pas respectées en fonction de l'humeur de l'équipier qui veut finir plus tôt. La cuisine est super, très bien équipée et propre, et le petit déjeûner très bien lui aussi puisqu'il inclut les boissons chaudes. Le service d'informations tourisme est au top. Enfin, un service de location de vélos est disponible et le bâtiment très bien situé propose de bonnes bières, des happy hours très appréciées, un billard pour s'amuser, un espace télé, et la pizzeria voisine rend bien service quand la cuisine ferme ! ;) ##### Shad Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2017 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Oct 11, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### no too bad no too bad ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2017 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Sam Sep 1, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Cheap rates--helpful staff--it's a hostel Stayed here while looking for an apartment. Good overall experience. Couldn't expect luxurious Marriot-like conditions considering I booked 7 nights for a total of $99 USD. bed sheets are cleaned, access to a furnished kitchen with the singular policy that you clean whatever you use when you're done, toast or cereal provided for breakfast, wifi, common lounge area.

I stayed in a room called Cave. It was a 12 person room. I stayed short term. If you plan to stay longer, I recommend a smaller room. The larger room itself was good. Warm but a little messy due to other guests. The location is great and they have free bikes up for grabs (daily). Wifi could have been better. ##### Ciaran Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2017
