Great place to stay. Location to local train station into the city was only two mins down the road. Local area had nice places to eat and drink. Only negative for me was that there was no hair dryers available other than that was great for the price 👍

8/10 Very good

This hostel is a really well located, the neighborhood it’s really lovely and near to the public transport services. Just is important to consider that underneath the hostel is pleased a really nice local pub and, mainly in Friday and Saturday, can be a little bit noisy.

Sam provides a really good offering for the ex back packers who don't want the price or fussiness of a hotel. A great pub with a varied customer base, always busy and has very pleasant helpful staff. Showers and kitchen serviced regularly by cleaning staff. Beds comfortable, nice towels and tea/coffee, kettle in the room. Washing and drying facilities a real plus.
Nicola, 3-night trip

Simple ageless barrloom hospitality. Excellent Marinara.

Peter, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Room was nice and tidy but so dirty under bed. Bathrooms/toilets were nice and clean. Staff friendly, welcoming and helpful. Would be nice to have air conditioning or a fan already in room.
Susana, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I liked that the people staying there or backpacking in the area were super nice, also the staff, I asked for an orange juice down at the pub under the hotel, (connected to the hotel) and when I realised I would t get much because of the small cup they said they could just make it a large to say thanks for staying, really would recommend, but the bed being two singles put together makes it hard to sleep in the middle and hog the bed,
Niki, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I love the college lawn so much
Patrick, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I liked the historic old building. The little kitchen was very handy. Didn't like all the noise, and didn't like the faulty toilet door catch, ...and didn't like the huge lack of parking.
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

After not being able to contact them for a late check-in, they were very apologetic and explained the reasons why. It was more than enough for what I wanted, and the Chapel Street precinct was easily reachable by foot. The train station was even closer. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It is its own night spot tucked away from the business of Chapel Street with a vibrant life of its own.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

No mirror in room and no milk (powered or long life) for tea and coffee in room. Didn’t realise there was no TV in room. Once patrons left hotel it was very quiet. It was great as there was a shared kitchen with washer and dryer as well as iron and ironing board.
JENNIFER, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Shower has no hot water. Warm water only constantly come out when the 1st floor pub is not in operation hours. Rest are all good. Good room, good bed for the price.
