The kitchen and bathrooms were cramped and often full. But, the location and staff were wonderful. The room was clean. The hostel was just full and could have used slightly better designed facilities to accommodate the crowd on hand.

Young and fit.

Great place for young and fit travellers. I would not recommend for families, the no ensuite bathroom was manageable for 2 nights. It was great for what it is. Took me back to my younger YHA days.

It's located on very steep street. Bathroom and bedroom was clean. Window hinge was broken and I couldn't close window properly and cold air was coming in. My room was located by the door to go down stairs, so it was noisy. But very handy location and fit for my purpose.
