Very good value, felt safe and clean. Bed is on the thinner side but was just enough to not be uncomfortable. Would stay again

Staff was unfriendly. She didn’t understand what I was asking for but kept repeating herself like a robot (3rd of the Oct in the evening) .. kitchen is wet and dirty all the time. If the washing machine impact the environment then they should have someone to clean it, guests are not cleaning properly after themselves. Beds are freaking noisy. You cannot move one arm through the night and not wake up everyone.

I enjoyed my 3 nights stay here. Convenient location if your travel is based in the area AND you have a rental car, free parking. Love the bed, I have full privacy and I can sit on my bed and still have the head room. Best beds I’ve ever seen at a hostel. Check in and out process was easy, have full kitchens to use. Stayed in 14 bedroom & didn’t feel too crowded. Thanks!
