Excellent location, loads of people, travel and job desks. Did you know you can't check in until 2pm (can put bags in a storage room). But I am sad to say, if sleep is important then do not come here. I was on the 4th floor and could still make out the lyrics in the music from the bar in the basement (until 3am).   Read Owner Comments

Please clean up the toilets/showers, and make the lift more reliable (four long flights of stairs to the top, especially with luggage, isn't fun....)   Read Owner Comments

When I went to extend my stay witht the hostel - they charged me about 4 dollars more than the current rate I had paid. Thought it was a bit off to be honest.   Read Owner Comments

This was the most disgusting, unsanitary, hostel experience that I have had in nearly five years of using hostels. The conditions were practically third-world, particularly the bathrooms. I would not recommend anyone to use this hostel.   Read Owner Comments

Bathrooms and showers were very dirty (or at least looked very dirty), but otherwise it was fine.   Read Owner Comments

The toilets got a little messy and the roof was closed off way to early, but thats understandable. Definately great staff, GREAT location and the beds were very comfty, all be-it a little wobbly on the top bunk! The down under bar is awesome and I will (and already have) recommend this backpackers again (I have reviewed on virtualtourist.com) We had a great stay!   Read Owner Comments
