This was definitly not a hostel I would recommend. At the check-in the staff was arrogant and almost offended that we wanted to check in before 1pm. The common facilities were dirty. You have to pay a deposit to get cuttlery and after two days the keycard reader to our room wasn't working anymore. Stefan, from Australia ~ 22nd May 2012

The sinks and the toilets were blocked, I didn't get the room I booked & in the room the trash was piled up the wall! I slept in a bed with dirty sheets, we had bedbugs which were biting and I was glad & relieved when I changed the Hostel after two yucky nights! Mona, from Germany ~ 8th May 2012

Expensive charges for Internet use, although there is free Internet available at the nearby state library.Hostel was quite noisy (although this was the fault of the guests, not necessarily the management). Grant, from Canada ~ 22nd Apr 2012

Was a comfortable hostel with a lovely kitchen area as well as a cafe which served wonderful food at very reasonable prices.Noise level was a bit high during the night - mostly from street.Ventilation to rooms could have been better.

One girl from the reception called danielle told me the first time on the phone is booked out but when i arrived there i got beds for the next 2 days. when i was talking to the staff she always disturbed with her silly jokes. backpackers vomitted on the toilets so there were no clean toilets for quite a while even though the cleaner kicked us out of the bathroom ages ago. no plate, etc in the kitchen. the doors didn“t lock properly and key card did never work.

Perfect location, clean/secure/friendly/big rooms. Only the kitchen is a joke: It is way to small for such a big hostels so we decided not to cook here...

Staff was really friendly and the hostel was very close to the city centre. It was a nice atmosphere in the hostel and the bar was fantastic to drink some beers with other backpackers! John, from England ~ 23rd Feb 2012
