This is my favorite hostel I've ever been in (of course I had a room all to myself). It is absolutely adorable and very clean, the staff treat you like a friend, and it has a great location. It is less than a ten minute walk from the center of town. There is a full kitchen that you can use. The beds are quite comfortable and have very cool 3 level bunks.

I liked the hostel. It was cosy. My only criticism is that there was just one bathroom available for me to use. This meant that I had to queue to use the toilet at night and again to have a shower in the morning.

It was a weird expirience to check in at this hostel.the owner was a bit stoned or drunk i think.. Breakfast for money-you can find better things around. Very clean and comfortable. Close to the rail station.

Thank you for comment, it is always good to hear your feedback. I am however sorry your experience was not totally satisfying here. Our full English breakfast with unlimited toast, tea and coffee we do feel is a fair price at £4, however we are always looking to improve and add to our service for our customers. As for your check in experience I was shocked to hear your comments. I can only say as you did check in very late on a Friday night after the reception had closed, there may have been a chance the beer was flowing in the bar. This I can only hold my hands up and apologise for. Should you visit Chester again I sincerely hope you would consider us, if only to see how we are contently adding value to our customers stay. Kind regards Manager/Bunkroom

We thought that everything about the Bunkroom was class, the place was spotless and the atmosphere was very welcoming. The manager Chris was excellent at his job and very nice. We would recommend the Bunk room. Jamii Lee & Anna

It's nice but too cold. The heater is weak as well as the water in the bathroom.

There were problems with the shower and the radiator. At first we had no hot water to shower but the staff is really nice. He came immediately to fix the shower , as well as the radiator, who was not working as well.

Feels like being at home.. What I felt, was that I had somebody to rely on during my stay at the Bunkroom. Friendly people, cozy environment and to be honest much more than what you expect from a hostel. I would definitely recommend the Bunkroom! Cheers, Andreas
