Stayed here early October and had a blast. All the staff were real helpful and buzzing about and the place was pretty much spotless.Mish the manager was friendly and pointed us in the right directions for tours and stuff. Highly recommended and if I ever get back to Europe I will definitely stay here again.

Perfect location. Moldy showers. Big kitchen. Cheap internet (1 pound for 30 minutes). 3 pounds for them to do laundry for you. I didn't see lockers. Bags are left in the lobby, though you're given a number. TV room and socializing room. Some people live there for the summer. Great if you like to hang out with people who like to party.

Before beginning this rant, I'll say that this hostel just came under new ownership, so things could improve in the future. I heard that the new owner plans to clean things up. That being said, this is the worst hostel I have ever stayed at. It was raining the day I arrived, and the rooms smelled like wet, dirty socks. Ventilation was very poor, and the musty odor did not completely leave even the next day. The dorm itself was dark and depressing. The worst feature of this hostel is its showers, which are unisex and located in a cement pit in the basement. The lights are motion sensitive, with the motion detector aimed at the door. Both mornings I stayed here, the light turned off midshower, leaving me unable to find my towel and get dressed in this dark, spooky pit. These sensors are also present in the bathroom. The only upside of this hostel is its location, extremely cheap price and its friendly staff, who are helpful and even do your laundry for you at a good price.
