    Great location but a bit dirty

    Liked: Position very central. Nice staff.

    Disliked: The beds and floorboards are very creaky so if people move in the night they will likely wake you up. Because of the central position, it was also very noisy on the street outside. The kitchen and bathrooms had not been cleaned recently.

    5 Stars once again:)

    Liked: Super friendly staff, there was a incident in the front street unrelated to the hostel and occupants, and unsure of availability of front entrance being okay to walk into I contacted the car staff and p they proceeded to assist me with contacting the hostel staff, almost within 5 minutes he opened the bike storage area allowing me quick entry and quick stowing of my bike making the whole process so much more simple for the day, many thanks:)

    Disliked: Someone threw out the coffee strainer I used a couple days ago:b jokes aside nothing wrong to be honest, very helpful staff and clean hostel once again:)

    Another 5 stars for an excellent hostel given that it's only £22 before genius and mobile coupons:D

    Liked: Clean, and well mannered place, always happy when I show up and always happy when I leave:), informative lady when I was there showed me the bike storage area for the first time, alot easier for me to use now thanks:)

    Disliked: The only thing i can think of even then was in the bike storage shed the upstairs door can't be custom closed for convenience of the staff, even then that's silly as a paying stayee for the deal of staying at the hostel doesn't go up there, only noticed it because I locked my bike up and wanted to make sure all is secure of which another 5 stars again for security of the location:)
