| The lights of the aisles were dark so I felt scared.
Also, I slept on the second floor of the bed, It was a bit weak.
Please check that.
Everything was fine other than them above.:)
Thanks! | ||

| I've stayed there three or four times in the last 18months, never more than a night or two. Either way, the location is the real key. The staff is fantastic, always helpful and just nice. The accommodations are great for those who really just need a place to sleep and stash their stuff, I don't lounge there so I can't speak to breakfast, excursions or even the tv room. | ||

| Loved staying the hostel, met lots of good people from everywhere. I think the room service is highly lacking, our sink was filthy for long before I got there. Hostel response: | ||

| we stayed for 1 week and the toilets haven't been cleaned once! Even if we asked reception staff to have them cleaned after day 3 nothing happened. | ||

| My bed was not made up when I arrived. When I asked at the front desk for it to be made up they made a note for the cleaner, however, it was not made up for two day's. I moved to one that was ready in the same room. A girl that joined the room later had to sleep in the two day old un-made bed??? It wasn't until I had a chance to see the cleaners and told them in person that the bed was finally changed?? | ||
