Really good Cleanliness and Convenient Location
fantastic stay helpful information enjoyable breakfast
Rosanna, the General Manager, greeted me upon arrival and provided helpful city information. Mags, Rosanna's Mum, prepared a very enjoyable breakfast. Housekeeping staff were respectful and ensured fresh towels and emptied bins daily. I will return.
The hostel charges £6 to store luggage if you arrive early or leave late. This policy, combined with the late check-in time, seemed designed to increase revenue. I felt this was an unnecessary expense.
Facilities

The common space downstairs features a microwave and a TV. This area allows guests to call people or relax. The hostel offers good wifi for convenient connectivity. It is a practical amenity.
Location

The hotel is a ten-minute walk to the central station and a three-minute walk to the nearest train station. Several pubs and food places are easily accessible. This makes it very convenient.
Rooms

The beds include charging ports and lights. Curtains provide full coverage across each bed for privacy. A shared bathroom inside the female dorm offers added convenience. The setup is functional.

great location friendly staff good breakfast damaged lock small lockers missing hooks
the location was great and close to the rail station. the staff were nice and friendly. the breakfast was good (i enjoyed the variety). the dorm room was spacious.
my dorm room door did not always shut properly because of the damaged lock. the lockers were not big enough for luggage. there were no hooks in the room for coats or towels (it was inconvenient).
