I brought three old guys (2x70,1x86) and they loved it The facilities were great and the shower was classed as 'better than home'. We were down for a concert in the National concert hall.

Great hostel. Lots of fun! They need to fix their internet though as it was a little slow! Apart from that it was an awesome experience. Hopefully will go back one day!

Very good location! Shuttle to airport just a few steps from the main door. Main bus station is near too. Good breakfast, good staying. Unfortunatly I didn't got some good room-mates, but that is not hostel's fault! Definitely liked! Good shower too!

Great staff, really friendly. Great location and there's a great pub next door. The kitchen is a bit small and sometimes there isn't enough room for everybody, but it's clean. I would definitely stay there again and recommend The Times Hostel!
