Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The staff was friendly and knowledgable. I appreciated the lockers and that everything is accessed by keycard, so the level of safety is raised. Unfortunately, with a hostel, when you are sleeping with strangers you do run into a risk of sharing a room with people who are loud, not conscious of others, or messy. This is not a fault of this hostel, but always something to be aware of for any first-time hostel go-er
