Hostel experience
It was ok. I had (unknowingly) chosen a room of 12, and it turned out that each room was a three-bed bunk, with me being at the bottom bunk. It was horrible. I couldn’t even sit on my bed. In my opinion, any bunk more than 2 should be banned. While not unique to here, I still find it baffling that hostels have dorm rooms and even bathrooms as mixed. So much awkward interactions with ladies which is quite weird and uncomfortable. Other than that, everything was ok.

Great facilities and location but with more popular hostels comes less tailored service. Some organised activities but lacked a friendly family quality. Still a great stay. 8/10 would recommend.

I asked to change three rooms and have never done that before in any hostel. One room had bad roommates (not the hostel's fault) then the second room was essentially inside the train station. There is a second building which backs immediately onto the station. You can imagine the noise from the doors beeping incessantly from 4/5am every morning. All the toilet and shower pods were full of long hair and were not that clean. Staff were very good and accommodating. The location is great. The four-bed female dorm with en-suite was decent, although tiny, but the other two rooms I tried weren't very good. The hostel doesn't feel designed for travellers, but people may find it OK for a night.

Extremely helpful and friendly front desk! Rooms were perfect, bathrooms / toilets were kept clean, excellent location close to everything (I didn't even have to take public transit!). The only con is the common areas aren't big enough or nice enough given the number of people the hostel.
