I stayed 4 nights on my own and 2 with my partner and found the hostel to be OK. The staff were friendly, there is a good size communal living room, water is hot. However, when I was staying there was also a large group staying so there was no space in the kitchen, no utensils or cutlery free (try eating spaghetti with a plastic spoon!) , and the staff spent the evening talking to them rather than being available to help. The rooms were freezing cold, and despite having a nice log fire, I only saw this lit once. They advertise free chocolate pudding in the winter, which isn't bad, and also free breakfast in the winter, but this can just be a couple loaves of cheap supermarket bread! Not really worth staying for. I stayed at the Bug backpackers on Vanguard street for the next 10 days and it was 100 times better!

We had a quality stay here, staff are friendly, lots of free stuff, each night somethings free like popcorn and beer or ice-cream and hot choccie, soup, etc which is good as it gets everyone int the main living area where there are loads of comfy sofas and a log fire.the kitchen is great, so clean and big with free cookin oil, salt, pepper, tea, coffe, herbs from the herb garden, u get the picture. we cant see why anyone wouldnt enjoy a stay here!!!

Well set-up hostel. Lovely atmosphere. Not a party place. Lots of seating areas, both indoors and outdoors, encourages people to mix.
