Firstly I must say how great, friendly and helpful the staff were.
However, there were other issues which mean I canāt give the place a better rating. I understand that hostels are often catering for a younger audience and of course there is a certain amount of noise that is expected. This place was on a whole other level though! On the Friday and Saturday night there were parties organised by the hostel, hosted on their roof terrace I think. I was on the third floor and the sound system was so powerful I felt I was at the party myself. Closed windows (the place is stuffy too), earplugs and a pillow over the head couldnāt drown out the noise that went on until 2/3am!! In addition, the screaming, shouting, banging of doors, running up and down the corridors by other guests was utterly awful⦠Horrible, horrible two nights!
My bed was very comfortable, the sheets were clean but the wall was stained by my bed and the shower was dirty! The location was amazing and I was able to store my belongings there all day without any issues.
