Disliked: Cleanliness
It was blissfully quiet and clean overall. Bit the communal kitchen was truly grotty and dirty and I cannot blame the guests as there is no means to clean, wipe or dry anything or the surfaces. A particular bugbear was nowhere having a means to dry ones hands, be that in the kitchen or the bathrooms.Very rapidly became irksome. I'd stay again but really would rather do so with these issues addressed.

Good communication immediately after booking, updates and reminders via WhatsApp. Friendly staff. Interesting old buildings with lots of original features. 24/7 front desk, small shop area for drinks and snacks. Communal kitchen area was a good size. Communal living room also a good size. Small balcony to sit out and see the city. Room was small but this was made clear. Towels were included in our room booking, however when I checked in on line the rules stated towels had to be paid for, so I purchased an additional towel. When we checked in the desk staff member was not aware our room price included towels. Facilities stated hair dryer, however this has to be borrowed from front desk, not available in room. The shared bathroom stated shared by no more than 4 rooms, however the 2 shared bathrooms on our floor only had 1 properly functioning shower between at least 10 rooms. Bathrooms were not very clean and due to a poorly flushing toilet I had to clean away other people's mess twice. Optional add on Breakfast was good.When we tried to access the free WiFi there was consistently a message advising it might not be secure. General decor was tired with signs of damp. A nice ambience, a reasonable price, but on balance probably would not book again due to poor bathroom facilities.

After 10hours travelling and already checked in online, I was told they needed proof it was me when i arrived, after i said just refund my money and ill find somewhere else, the attitude changed! I got our keycard and followed the maze of steps to the room, opened the door and entered a cell with undecorated walls I mean no plaster, bricks showing, lovely shower room though, dirty towels and mirror and floor, sat on bed it was ok, no tv! No glasses for drinking out of either. Wont be back

Nice hostel, great that the single room with shared bathroom was affordable. Unfortunately the wifi was down for most of my stay which was a bit annoying. And my room was about 10 fire doors and 100m away from the bathroom. But otherwise good location and friendly staff.

Was checked in a room where there were stains of blood on the bed curtains, pee all over the toilet seat and the floor. The lady at the reception dismissed me and refused to help. I left the premises to find a cafe with a toilet and contacted hotels.com customer service. The person on the chat seemed willing to help and promised I was going to be contacted by hotels.com for a refund etc but never been contacted back. As the weather was horrible, I had to go back and at the reception there was another person. Showed pictures and videos of the room to prove my claim as the unhelpful colleague wrote in the system it wasn't true. At the end, he moved me to a different room and firstly on a bed I couldn't use due to disabilities. I only slept 1 out of 2 nights on the bed. The cleaning ladies only collect towels, change bedding and leave a toilet paper roll. So I bought my own cleaning products and kept the toilet clean. Upon arrival, the lady at the reception did not even tell me the kitchen and dining area were upstairs. Found it out just before leaving from another guest.
