The hostel wasn’t very clean, and there was a strange smell in the room; no wardrobes, but the location was not far from the old town.

Very reasonable price, walkable from the ferry terminal and into historic districts. I will definitely be staying here again.

1-night trip

8/10

The staff were very accommodating and helped every step of the way and the location is literally fantastic with a supermarket, the ferry docks and the old town literally within walking distance. The free waffles in the morning are also a massive bonus! The room itself was nice however the walls are made out of paper. I booked the top floor to escape the noise but I ended up not getting alot of sleep and unable to relax. Bring either some comfortable earpods or noise blockers to get sleep.

The reception staff was very helpful. I stayed an unusually long period of time due to attending a three week event nearby. Everything was terrific!

Hostel is right across the street from the tram, buses and the Fat Margaret area of the old town. The train station is in the area. About a thousand feet down the street is an excellent, full service grocery store, and a convenience store in the other direction. Shopping is otherwise limited. No real sit down restaurants in the neighborhood, but then again it's very close to the old town. On cleanliness, i give them a "good.". That is, certainly it's not bad but overall it could be better. The hostel is in an old building but I had no particular problems. They have a basement recreation room with TV, community kitchen, and sauna which I can't comment on. They also offer a free make-it-yourself Belgian waffle facility in the morning. Also I think that reception is open 24 hours. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

One shower and two toilets for an entire floor and the floor had maybe 12 rooms or more, and if each room has 8 beds....... Would not want to stay here when it's very busy!! Not enough power outlets and they are not by each bed. No place to put your phone or room keys in a top bunk, and obviously can't charge your phone while you're there.

Cozy hostel. I stayed 3 nights. Never got the chance to try the waffles because they were always gone too fast. I think you have to be there exactly at 9am to get one. The sauna was super nice though. Staff are extremely antisocial and seem almost annoyed when you ask them questions. Not really the type of hostel to meet people but was a relaxing stay

Hinta-laatusuhde erinomainen. Yksinkertainen majoitus, mutta kaikki tarpeellinen löytyi. Joustava sisäänkirjautuminen sopi meille.

Yöpyminen sujui melko hyvin. Saimme huoneen kadunpuoleisesta joten autoliikenne ääniä kuului mikä ei meitä haitannut. Aamu kuudelta kuitenkin jatkuva oven avaus/pamaus herätti aluksi, mutta siihenkin tottui.

I booked a private room with bathroom, so not the typical hostel experience. Staff were friendly, the place is clean, well located, the waffles are a great treat, and the room was well heated (March). The lounge area is underground with little natural light so not really somewhere you want to hang out. The main issue was that the initial room was next to the lounge and this very noisy (even though people were just talking and watching TV normally : it echoes a lot), luckily they were able to change my room after the first sleepless night... So pick a room on the 4th floor if you want to sleep 😊, and they're also very cute
