Very dirty place, we found cockroaches in the kitchen. The free breakfast is just a joke... The bed sheets didn't look really clean. The receptionists are not really pleasant and helpful. You have to pay extra for the Internet. Really expensive for what it is. AVOID !!!!!

This place shocked us seriously!!! We stayed in 4 mixed dorm and we all got BED BUGS! Everything was so dirty and there was party 24/7. Hostel manager Markus was very arrogant person. You should stay far away from this place.

Bed bugs!! Disgusting noisy drunken backpackers that frighten other hostel guests which managers ignore. Police called in and they still bring in alcohol, mess the place up..not safe!! Dirty surroundings, no spa, kitchen a mess an bedding needs renewing. Avoid it at all costs.

Arrived at hostel to find it wasn't a 24 hour reception like advertised. Instead key is left on selotaped onto front door with your name on it. When entering the hostel there is no spa or safe deposit like advertised. Door to room didn't lock properly. Was evident door had been broken before and the lock had simply been attatched... More

Place is pretty shabby. The spa advertised on the net doesn't work. It's surrounded by residential houses so you can't really party otherwise the cops turn up. Ended up staying up the road, far better set up and good location.

No kettle in a 'well-stocked' kitchen sums up this place. Well-meaning and close to the centre of town but just a little bit too shabby!
