It was our first stay in a hostel and we enjoyed it very much. Clean rooms, nice and very friendly staff. The only thing we did not like was the water in the showers - it was definitely too hot. Anyway a very good hostel.

Nothing to do with the hostel, just the people staying there! It was very noisy in the corridors. Shouting late at night and banging doors made it difficult to relax.

We only stayed at the hostel for one night and found it great value for money. The only negitive thing I have is ALL THOSE STAIRS and the lift was out of order.

Lift was broken when we stayed which was a pain as there are lots of stairs but was fixed the day we left! But it kept us fit! :)

Everything in the hostel was ok with the exception of security, we had the unpleasant situations at the door when we came back in the evening from city.Good solution which has already met in other hostels would be a small safe in each room.Everything rest, that is, service, location and the same room at the hostel really very good.

Sometimes guests were having fun and screaming close to the rooms. It would be necessary to control them.

Very noisy because of its long long corridor when young people run through it or just talk. But the guy at the reception the night was very effective our last night to control a large drunken group. So ...

Please put electric showers in the bathrooms. It makes showering much easier.

An okay hostel. One of the bigger ones. Didn't like the showers and toilets, One big room for the whole floor and not enough toiletts and sinks, so you would have to wait. Breakfast wasn't to good either.

I found this hostel good, but I think that some things could be easily improved. There are no lockers in the rooms, even though there is enough room for placing them. There could be a bench in the bathroom to facilitate the change of clothes. The breakfast offer is a little poor, compared to hostels in other countries. However, the hostel I stayed in Dublin offered a similar meal set, so I think this may be the simple Irish breakfast. The staff were very attentive and the building is clean.
