This place was a huge dissapointment. I know you get what you pay for but this was pants even for a budget hostel. The rooms are set out like university halls of residence with different flats. Each flat has a kitchen bathroom and shower and you share with the people staying in the other rooms. There are extra showers and toliets on each floor though. Our flat just smelt soo bad, after we left all our stuff smelt like the hostel despite us doing washing while we was their. It seemed thate everyone else in our flat was living their long term which made using the kitchen a bit awkward. Someone left a pair of rolled up boxers in the shower. The room was freezing, but the lady at reception did go out of her way to find us a heater but thats probably the only good thing i can say about he place. The washing mashined didnt wash our clothes properly and left detergent all over our clothes and the dryer didnt dry it properly either. The communal areas in the flat are cleaned as i saw the cleaner in their but we was their for 2 nights and the same pile of hair was in the bathroom the whole time we was their. The whole experience was just pretty grim.
Good for the price. Need better pillows and new showers. Very lovely staff

Easy check in and out, dated building, in a great spot, needs an update, Room was simple and cool, choice of mixed or single sex dorm, private rooms available also, not bad for the price.

I had a very comfortalbe and clean room and an ajoining shared kitchen which was less than hygienic but fault of customers who left their dirty dishes. Staff were there first thing in the morning to clean.
Very reasonabely priced
The place is a hole. I booked 2 nights and only stayed 1 as it was that grim. I know its cheap but i expected a basic level of cleanliness which this place didn't have. When i checked out early, I wasn't even asked why i was leaving, which makes me think it must happen a lot. I also asked for a refund which was declined. The entire place needs a good clean and refurb.

Disliked: Amenities
Location was very convenient, but outside was very very noisy every night. Couldn’t sleep because of hot and noise. Tiny shower rooms were not with fan, so very humid and hot all the time.
But it was cheap, cost performance was excellent.
Run down and not cared for. Needs a good clean (including the corners of the floors). Shame as good location - excellent vegan cafe down the road. Staff were lovely and helpful.
Room was so hot I could hardly sleep. Small, oscillating fan did nothing. Room was packed with people who live there for an extended amount of time. Smelled poorly. Free snack at night was nice. Bathroom was always soaked, ladies trash was overflowing untouched my entire stay. Would not stay again or recommend to anyone. Plenty of other hostels at same price would likely be better. Good location to access ferry.
Great family run business
Kind, wonderful and traditional family welcome
Each area has its own kitchen and bathroom
Main issue is could be cleaner at times
the staff were amazing, the free meal and cheap drinks were an added bonus!!! toilets and shower a little gross but thats what happens in a hostel I guess
TERRIBLE!!!! DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE WORST HOSTEL IVE EVER STAYED IN! I’d rather sleep on the street than stay here again. Paid for a week but left after one night it was that bad.
