Great location, staff, and value. The corridor carpet is disgusting. And the hostel is basically full of teenagers.

I had a really good stay here and I recommend this place so much, the area is lovely and lively. Staff were so nice and it’s really close to a train station. I walked in the neighbourhood at night and early morning and felt pretty safe, although I probably wouldn’t recommend it. The bunk beds are quite noisy and shakey but everything else was perfect.
