Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a horrible stay. BED BUGS, knife threats, and in rude staff. The check in was rude and I was treated like I was an inconvenience. Later that night my roommate came in and said that some just threatened the front desk with a knife and two cop squadrons were sent in! I was terrified to leave my room. My roommate was smacking in the room and I later found out the cops didn’t arrest the guys who were threatening people with knife’s they just let them stay. Oh and Best of all, I got eaten by BED BUGS.

Toilets unclean, nil appropriate disposal options for sanitary products, dodgy doors to rooms and loud guests at all hours. Ok for one night, but wouldn’t recommend for anything longer! Reception staff were all pleasant!

Don’t not book! Even if it’s cheap!
Do not stay here. It’s more of a homeless shelter than hostel. The photos make it look clean but it is anything but. There are drug addicts here who will try and open your door. Didn’t even stay for 1 hour. The receptionist is unbelievably rude and unprofessional. If you book here your company is people who don’t mind living in their own filth. The room I got had faeces on the wall and the smoke alarm was ripped open and batteries stolen. After everything only staying for 1 hour I was denied a refund for my stay. Absolutely disgusting and horrendous. Please stay away.

Despite the best efforts of the staff, this place was completely compromised by the clientele. Recently renovated bathrooms were left in an appalling state by those using and I saw faeces in places I have never seen it before in my life. It's a shame because the hostel is well located and the staff were friendly and helpful.

We were allowed to check-in 4 hours early. Really great! The hotel is definitely not as bad as some of the reviews are stating. However there's still room for improvements :) The male toilets were disgusting and ran out of toilet paper during the night. The rooms were really worn down

If price is your only concern then by all means stay. Expect no amenity. No towels, no toilet paper, loud music being played late at night and noisy guests moving around constantly. At least they could install some sharps bins so loose needles weren’t put in random places
