This was jsut like staying in a share house - but better. Nothing better than getting to your hostel and being offered a cup of tea and having a chat rather than a hostile, corporate check in and list of rules. Totally great place to stay if you like meeting people and generally feeling like...

I was very disappointed that there was smoking allowed in the hostel. I arrived with a very bad chest infection, and because of noise complaints from the neighbours, the windows in the hostel were kept closed, with the smoke indoors, it was extremely hard to breathe.

Good small hostel. Friendly staff and great location. However, if you arrive and want a good nights sleep and there is a party going on, you aren't likely to as the dorms are right beside the common area.
