Comfortable rooms, good facilities, clean, friendly staff

Very convenient location, room was better than expected. It was very quiet at night which was a surprise.

The hostel is in a peaceful central location with a well equipped, spacious commercial style kitchen that guests can use to cook their own meals. The ensuite bathroom in dormitory room was very convenient.

Great location, comfortable and very clean. Plenty of kitchen and fridge space with nice showers and bathroom areas. Lovely dog called Biggie!!

Convenient, quiet, loved the privacy of the pods, great kitchen facilities

We liked having our own room which is private and the shared bathrooms feel private since only sharing with with few people.

Pod beds were amazing. Very private with the blinds and your own reading light.

Everything was good. Location is excellent. Wifi was very good, which is something you usually don't get in these type of places. The shared area was also very clean and useful (kitchen had everything).

Toilet in pod ensuite had a poor flush and basin slow to empty - but small quibbles for EXCELLENT accommodation.

comfortable, clean, quiet, well-organised. room nice, shower great. staff really helpful, especially as we arrived late and forgot to notify them.
