★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I rarely post bad reviews, but even with more than a thousand travel days in my logbook this place just took the prize for worst hostel. There seems to be people somewhat permanently living there, things are stolen in the dorms, there's a water leakage in the luggage room (which was "fixed" with a few towels). The common area looks like a thrift shop which got robbed. Also had to break myself out of the shower as the lock wasn't functioning properly.
It seems to be a place with a lot of cool ideas, but they are trying too hard and forget about the essential things.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ While we were obviously not expecting much for the price and the advertised no window of our private/w shared bathroom, the place reeked of mildew and was so poorly constructed that we could hear everything, and light leaked in from the semi connected bathroom walls. There was also no windows/good ventilation in either common rooms. However, the location is great and the shared kitchen is a good addition.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Don’t stay in here! Why:
We reserved a triple room (number 602- 5). We got a nice room, big, with a great view to the cbd. Then we noticed that the linens are dirty. We went to sleep and woke up in the morning with lots of itching bites of bedbugs!! All of our body and face were full of stings and it was horrible.
When we told the staff about it, they gave us spray against bugs and fresh linens.
Though the staff was nice and helpful, I wouldn’t recommend staying in this hostel!!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My partner and I stayed here for a week, can’t complain. We were very pleased with our room, very clean, tidy and we had a window and a fan but by what other people who were staying there said, it sounds like we got one of the better rooms. A lot of rooms had no window OR fan (in the middle of summer!!) and one room apparently had water leaking in from the bathroom next door. Other than that, our shared bathroom and kitchen were clean and pleasant. We also loved the bar downstairs and the free snacks and staff were friendly. Sounds like a hit or miss with the rooms though so I would suggest making sure you get one with a window and fan, especially in the middle of summer. We had our fan going on full and window open the entire time and our room was still really warm so can’t inagine what it would be like without it!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Room was tiny and stifling, almost too hot to sleep. Bathroom was always wet from showers, trash overflowing in bathroom for my entire stay. Free mini-meal was nice and common area on first floor comfortable. Staff was helpful and pleasant. Strong WiFi, great location and close to ferry terminal.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very positive experience in this hostel only. There is one kitchen for every couple dorms. The free meal in the evening is great. Delicious and in case you are very hungry you can top it up to a big meal fot only 3£. Also for a big meal + drink for 5£ which is an exceptional price. Only downside is no lockers in the room. Would stay here again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The facilities were maintained however the only room available was windowless so it had a strong musty smell. The dorm I was in had a shared kitchen and bathroom which was all reasonably clean and tidy. Shower was good and the place included a free dinner serving between 7-8pm in the pub downstairs
