This is a great place to stay, especially for its super-low prices! Nice staff, gorgeous building, 45-minute walk from RSC. The beds are comfortable and have charging ports. I do wish that there had been more space within the showers to put things so I could leave my clothes in a dry space to change after. Note to those seeing an evening performance at the RSC - the buses don't run that late, so you'll either be walking or taking a cab/Uber. I walked home around 23:00 and had no issues!

The hostel itself was great, it was about a fourty minute walk into town but it didn’t feel long, straight shot basically and sidewalk the whole way. There was a sink in the room which was nice because the sinks in the bathrooms were tiny, and the shower could use a shelf but even with these things the hostel was great. Would stay here again.

not able to check in on 11/08; On the 12/08/23 when I arrived at 8.40 “to check in” the male staff member stared at me, I repeated myself and his reply was “ check in is at 15.00” so I explained I was due the day prior. room No 4 He said rather sharply “ they’ll still be asleep so be quiet” my bunk was the top one( not a problem) BUT Only 3 lockers available for 6 bunks- I needed a locker locker and very large bags were open x 2 on the very limited floor space - fire/Not safe-Not as advertised
