Toilets and showers were not very clean, and only 2 showers, only 1 worked for a whole floor of women! website was misleading in its description of the rooms too, not what we expected.

The location of the hostel is fantastic but the hostel itself is one of the worst I have ever stayed in. The rooms are filthy, the beds are broken and the staff incredibly unhelpful.

They put too many people in one room, one shower to share with 20 girls, not clean at all, the people that we met that were staying in the hostel and the location made the hostel not the hostel or the staff

Reception being closed between 1 & 5 is very poor and the telephone number given out of hours always went straight to answerphone so wasn't even able to enter hostel because couldn't check in till 12 and shut by 1. Unable to get any plates or cooking facilities before 8 or 1-5 very very poor. Kitchen and eating area also far too small. Noise level ridiculous posters stating no noise policy after 10.30 was just a joke as it went on till 6am not even just talking shouting and banging. showers were far too small. Will definately be advising people not to come here
