Great location right in the heart of the city, with friendly and helpful staff. It has a well-equipped kitchen a spacious dining room, and a lounge as well. The dorm room had its own little bathroom which was cleaned very well each day. The beds were comfortable, and they had a lamp and a phone charging outlet (USB-C and one other) so I didn't have to buy a converter, which was amazing!

This place rocks big time. They got them pod beds , sort of a capsule with a curtain and it's like you have your own private space even though you are in a shared room. Highly recommended. The staff is friendly and helpful, Johana (sorry if the spelling is off) and Fernando, you are Stars.

The hostel is very good. Common areas such as the bathrooms/showers on each level are kept clean and smelling nice always. Beds are pod type beds (enclosed) which is really cosy I'd love to try it in winter.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great location for town, we got upgraded from a private twin room with a shared bathroom to a private 4 bed dorm with an en-suite. The room was clean, beds comfy and the staff were really friendly. The breakfast was good, just toast, cold meat, cheese, fruit, salad and soup but a great addition to the already cheap stay.

    Good value for money, in that it was cheap and right beside Connolly station. Clean, with a comfortable bed and warm water in the shower. There's a nice bar in the foyer area and they serve good food too. Overall, a good hostel if you're on a budget.

    Think youth hostel, dormitories, study rooms, multi cubicle showers and toilets, kitchen, laundry, helpful staff, cafe. Quiet safe clean rooms, solid enclosed bunks with a comfy mattress, shelf, light and charger inside the bunk and a curtain to for privacy. Also a locker/drawer under the bunk for stuff. Didn't hear any noise from any other guest during the night Staff friendly, helpful and efficient Nice area for cafe, old stained glass architecture, relaxed with other guests Outside garden for relaxing, chilled

    Best hostel I have ever stayed in. Really clean and comfortable. The bunk bed set up is brilliant - all feels very private and safe. It was quiet at night, I never had to queue for the showers and the lounge / dining and study rooms are excellent. It’s a short walk into town and right by a bus stop. Lots of nice places to eat and drink just minutes away.
