I dislike very much the noises from the pub which is just situated beside the rooms. How can we rest and sleep well?

I wouldnt rate this hostel at all. Not very clean, it was totally packed when we went there, couldnt even get a place to sit down - had to resort to the stairs. Some of the staff were not that knowlegable and I dont know who designed the bathrooms but definetly not human friendly. This hostel might be ok if you are 18/19 and all you want to do is party. I think Im a bit old for all that at 27. Not an enjoyable stay.

I only stayed one night while waiting on a flight so it did the job. Nice place, very clean and well looked after. However, no lockers or safety boxes in the room. All in all, I would recommend it.

Mixed bag. Really easy to get to know people, excellent bar, very central to city. However, had to hire cutlery (absolutely ridiculous!), rooms are nearly illegally small, no room in relation to amount of beds & don\'t be fooled by \'free\' Internet-its slow, often on the blink & you wait at least 30mins! Didn\'t think the hostel was that secure either. Overall, decent place if you want a lively backpacker scene!

It's a good place and if you want to use free Wi-Fi to surf on Internet, just come here right now.

The staff was unknowledgeable of the city and location of various attractions. The bar at night was quite noisy as well, for those of us who choose to not partake in late night drinking.
