  Very basic, central, friendly staff

  Liked: Superb location, staff is very friendly and hardworking, apart from one older woman, she seemed a bit grumpy.

  Disliked: Very noisy, no curtains at the beds, rooms are small, building is old, so it all looks a bit dirty, there was mould in the bathroom. Door of bathroom opened against one of the beds, no foam or whatever to protect it. During the week the bar closes at 11PM
