Small bed, my feet hung off.
Very public if you're on top bunk.
Very hard to get into top bunk, when someone is, it shakes the entire row of beds.
Sounds wasn't an issue with plugs.
Shower nice. EVERYTHING is an optional extra : towel, shampoo, padlock for locker.. etc.
Great stay in a fun and clean hostel environment. Clean common areas including bathrooms and showers, free luggage storage when we left on a side trip for a couple days. We, as 2 adults and our 10-year old, stayed in the 4-bunk private room during both stays. The room was cramped and we kept hitting our heads from the lower bunks, and it didn’t have AC (did have a fan). Regardless, I would stay here again and look to stay at more hostels in the future.
Nice service. Friendly atmosphere. Pod gave me good intimacy, however, the bed was a bit hard and pillow too thin. A better air conditioning system is needed as it tends gets too hot in the pod in the summer. Shower floors were a bit dirty as well
I really enjoyed the ambience of the property, though I didn't stay very long. I'd definitely consider returning here though - it seems like this place really places a high value on community which I appreciate
Period and quirky; great age mix in clientelle - all over 18 appear to be welcomed and children if with supervising adult. Great bunch of staff, keen to make you feel at ease, with events, chats, social activity or equally keep a courteous distance if it looks like you want to be alone.
