Avoid on the Weekends!
I had a room in the girls sanctuary, I have previously stayed as the glam table just outside of the rooms was very convenient (free to use hair dryers/straighteners!) The room however was so hot, we had 2 floor fans going but they couldn’t really reach the upper bunk beds. Not the staffs fault but the saturday night i stayed, some girls brought boys into the girls only sanctuary. Very drunk and very loud at 12:30am, other times i’ve stayed the club next door can still be heard into the early hours of the night. (more less avoid staying here if a weekend) Also the elevator wasn’t working! (oct 2024) such a pain to go up 4 flights of stairs to a hot room! Like it is a cheap stay and quite central to transport, it just seems quite rundown

Not bad but needs to be improved
A lively place where you won't feel alone. The staffs are friendly and helpful. Overall the bed and the bathroom are clean, but the shower place needs to be improved. In addition, it’s also not convenient to use a mobile app to unlock the door because I have to carry the phone everywhere even when I take a shower. The room’s cleanliness highly depends on the roommates. There is always rubbish on the floor, and when I checked in the room, the only empty locker was filled with previous tenant’s clothes.

No windows/aircon in the top floor girls only rooms. 6 girls sharing one room with a really bad plug in fan. all sockets one end of the room rather than one for each individual bunk which was boiling hot. Overall areas were clean and kitchen is big. Good location if you want to be in the city.

8/10 Very Good

The staff are very helpful and the rooms are clean and tidy . The shower facilities are good with hot water . This is my second stay and would recommend to stay in the female only dorms as I felt very safe travelling as a sole female traveler. The elevator are out which is my only negative but due to required maintenance that’s not the staff fault . They are very helpful in helping you with getting your luggage to your room . Would def stay again. great location and activities within the hostel are well rounded and accommodate all

Staff and checking was awesome. They even upgraded me to a good room. I would be happy to stay here next time too as it is very convenient to move around. Downside - Broken fixtures in bathrooms and loud doors. Elevator is being fixed which was not ideal for me to walk 3 stairs after running a gruel marathon ( 5 floors to kitchen) Rest else, great work team and loved my stay here.

Location was excellent, close to public transport and very central. Bedding and room was clean, but bathrooms and other public spaces not kept clean. In the kitchen there often weren’t tea towels to dry dishes or enough clean cutlery.

Very nice spot and super nice staffs, the downfall is clubbing downstairs until dawn, which makes you feel like you are sleeping on the dance floor 😂 we had a room with crossing outside, and you can hear that beeping all night long. Good lock system, good facility, everything was clean. The bed was a bit cheap but for that price I don’t expect much more. Overall pretty nice, would suit young people.

6/10 Good

The staff were super nice and helpful. The other guests all seemed pleasant enough, just doing their own thing in the lounge area. The room (double with ensuite) was clean, tidy and the furnishings and bedding were all in good condition, but the ensuite's water pressure was a bit low if I am to be picky. The only real let down is the noise from the Scary Canary. Rooms in the 220-30 range are best avoided as they sit directly above the bar/nightclub and sleep prior to 3am on a weekend is impossible, even with the supplied earplugs.
