  • Service: Rating of 4.1 out of 5

    "Good location, a mere 10-minute tram ride from cental station, and less than 5-mins walk from the natural history museum, friendly staff and communal areas which encourage interaction make this a very worthy hostel to stay in." source Hostelworld

    "Location was good (I was able to walk to the hostel from the bus station, but it was a bit of a hike." source Hostelworld

    "Scruffy hostel, poor location, uncomfortable beds and tram stop did not exist when I stayed." source Hostelworld

    "Good breakfast but its not included in the price." source Hostelworld

  • Room

    "one of the best hostel i stayed on my trip, cheap, free internet, very good breakfast - but not included :-( - good common room with tv and kitchen, easy to meet lots of nice people." source Hostelworld

    "Big but quiet hostel, room was very small for 5, nice staff, close to the hostel good bars, supermarket and small restaurants, close to tram." source Hostelworld

    "I happened to meet quite strange people in my room and different rooms for both sexes is just plain stupid." source Hostelworld

    "The new part of the Hostel is very silent, in the rooms or on the toilets you dont hear a thing from outside." source Hostelworld
