Had some weird roommates but hostel can’t control that. staff were nice, bunk beds were quite cramped as they were triples and there wouldn’t be enough power outlets if the all of the beds were dull.

Feminine room has no ventilation and it's ridiculously small for 6 people. I'm not sure if it was the ventilation problem, but the bed even seem smaller than normal. The lift was not working. I talked with only two staff, and they were both rude.

Very friendly staff, great location. However not social at all, there was a school trip (loads of kids) in the small common room while we were there. Room was dirty and extremely stuffy. No place to sit and meet others. Would not stay here solo wanting to meet people.
