The hostel is amazing - great staff, amazing location, and best breakfast I’ve had in a while. The private rooms remind me of my college dorm - not a bad experience at 25.

I arrived seven in the morning. "You can leave your bag here but you can't check in until 2 pm" "Fine but is there a bathroom that Is can use?” "Sorry but no” "What?" I was holding my pee all the way to the hostel and finally ready to relieve my blodder. Getting extra a few minutes was nothing but a torture! I almost pissed litterally.
The people, the staff and guests are all friendly. I happened to be in the same room as attractive three girls:

Can be loud as the pub is at the right downstair and they throw a really good party on weekends. I liked that the staff offered a stamp to skip the long line though. If you are looking for a place where you can rest quietly, you should avoid here.
Very friendly staff. Everyone was so chill and helpful. They also have different events as you can meet new people from everywhere. I also liked their pub which is right at the downstair, they have very good vibes and music. You can get a stamp from the hostel staff and skip the line!

Small kitchen for the amount of people that stay there. Same goes for the bathroom. The hot water wasn't working when I came in, and there seemed to be some miscommunication about whether it was reported/it was being fixed. It was working again by the next morning thankfully.
Convenient spot in town, smaller dorm rooms which makes for a much better night's sleep. Lovely bar downstairs that also does food
