Even though the hostel is very busy with heaps of travelers coming in and out. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. Great stay over all!

On the whole very impressed but I think they could of done more to help single people interact. Inviting to spend every night in the down stairs bar is not quite the same thing!On the whole very impressed but I think they could of done more to help single people interact.

This is a party hostel. You won't get a good night's sleep here - and it's pot luck who'll end up in your dorm.
I booked a week and left after one night.This is a party hostel. You won't get a good night's sleep here - and it's pot luck who'll end up in your dorm.

Good hostel, but could do with more chill out areas. Not a very good hostel if you are on your own and looking to meet new people.Good hostel, but could do with more chill out areas. Not a very good hostel if you are on your own and looking to meet new people....Close

Very, very big hostel, but well-run and well-maintained. Right next to the main train station, so it\'s pretty convenient if you\'re coming straight from the airport.Very, very big hostel, but well-run and well-maintained.

They only have two elevators for the entire 8 story building, and there is no way of moving up or down besides those elevators. Additionally, you must use your key card to access your floor. In theory this security sounds great, however the key cards really suck and need to be updated. Don\'t be surprised if it takes you 4 or 5 goes to get it to work. This same process occurs when entering your room or the hostel after hours.They only have two elevators for the entire 8 story building, and there is no way of moving up or down besides those elevators.

Wake Up! is more of a luxury hostel in that you pay a lot more to stay there but at the same time receive a guarantee of cleanliness, space and excellent staff service. I was extremely happy with my stay here - the showers were very clean!Wake Up! is more of a luxury hostel in that you pay a lot more to stay there but at the same time receive a guarantee of cleanliness, space and excellent staff service.
