The location is just next to the underground. And there is even the bus station 50 meters away where you can get to tbe central 24/7
You can not charge your phone while you are on bunk bed. They have put the electric plugs away from the beds. There s no wifi

La location è molto conveniente, il prezzo è basso.
Ho saputo al check-in di dover lasciare 10 pound di garanzia per la chiave che ti ridanno al check-out se non perdi la ricevuta. Lo spazio in generale non da l'impressione di essere tanto pulito. Almeno le coperte erano pulite.

Niska cena jest bardzo konkurencyjna względem innych miejsc. Okolica SUBIEKTYWNIE mega ciekawa bo Hostel praktycznie jest częścią starego i zabytkowego cmentarza chociaż od niego się tam nie wejdzie. Od strony cmentarza widać na ścianie budynku nawet tablice nagrobne. Dla mnie osobiście cmentarz to dodatkowy obiekt do zobaczenia ale domyślam się, że nie każdy może lubić takie klimaty.
Mieszkałem już w Hostelu z pokojami wieloosobowymi i nie oczekiwałem cudów ale warunki były naprawdę słabe. Prysznic w pokoju, brudno, mało przyjaźnie wyglądające osoby w pokoju. To ostatnie i wyraźne problemy zdrowotne z osób w pokoju zmusiło mnie i partnerkę do zmiany szukania czegoś innego. Generalnie wrażenie jakby się trafiło do izolatki na wojnie. Ostatecznie skończyło się na zmianie pokoju na prywatny. Drugi pokój nieco lepiej ale nadal pozostawia wiele do życzenia zwłaszcza, że jest za dużo wyższą cenę.

Not only are the other guests thieves but the staff are also thieves. My bank card was stolen was stolen from my purse while I was in the bathroom and when I ordered a new one to the hostel, I found out from the security guard that the “Manager” had stolen the new bank card. A truly sickening place. Funny thing is the card can only work when activated by my bank app so all those hamburgers she was planning to buy to feed her fat ass won’t work 😂 I have filed a police report for the stolen cards and also reported the hostel to the council for drug use. Many of the guests freely smoke weed and I even saw someone using cocaine in the bar. The council will investigate in their own ways, possibly through monitoring and auditing the hostel. Who knows what other crimes they’ll find out about in the process… Avoid this rat-infested hovel at all costs

It's near from the underground station
It's dirty, poor and I had problems with the beddings. There was no duvet for my bed and it took me over 40 minutes to get other one, because the staff said to me "sorry, but we don't have another one"!!!! The shower is inside the room (8 beds) so it's impossible to take a shower at night or in the early morning.

Ladies in reception were nice and friendly also in coffee shop.
I wanted to do some laundry. Ye I know I got quite late and I sort of understand that the staff in the laundry had long difficult day behind him but everything is possible to say in more ways. I don't think he use really correct way. Also the washing machine and dryer are usually not difficult to use. So they could be available to all customers for some extra payment anytime they have time.

First of all, amazing staff. Girls in reception was very polite, and did the check-in very fast and smooth, as well as we had a good laugh. Apart from that they did their work professionally.
A lot of rooms and great place to stay on a budget, so I would definitely recommend this place if you just need to have few nights for a sleep and thats all. As there are not many other amenities in Hotel/hostel. You get what you pay for, and for the last minute booking, its an amazing option, as well as easy to get to the center by bus or underground.
All was good.

Very near subway station.
No lockers or any kind of shelf in the room to put your belongings. We found people from other room staying in ours, walking in and out during night, even when the room was locked... not secure at all. The shower was inside the room, but with no private place to get dress.

The worst place I ve ever been in my life. Staff was so rude, I arrived there and the lady at the reception after intentionally ignoring me for 5 minutes, looked at me very annoyed and asked me to go sit down (not at the chair next to me, at one other chair, far away) and she would talk to me when she had time. 15 minutes later i just left. She was just sitting there, there were no other customers before me. She ignored everyone who came downstairs to talk to her or talked to them as if they were animals and she was supposed to be the receptionist. She made me feel bad for booking a bed there..I didn't even go back( I had a booking so i lost my money). This place was awful, smelly and dirty. I didn't feel safe, definitely don't recommend it for solo female travelers and I would definitely recommend them to reconsider their staff. Awful experience..
