it is an old court house. the showers are crap with no vents and nowhere to put your gear on a shelf. So you get steamed out with gear and all in a small closed space. they over book the place. people come in the your room and start making their beds at one and three in the morning.

There was nothing good about being there. It was horrible. There wasn't any room to breathe there. The rooms were horrible, and they smelt like pee.!

Good location, not so good hostel

Free breakfast, good location and lockers in the rooms. Nice and clean. Shame none of the individual bed lamps worked and that the rooms on the bottom floor were very, very small and dark. Lots of large international school groups were staying there, making it very noisy with lots of teenagers running around. Checking in took ages as there was only one member of staff on the front desk and 6 other people waiting to check in too.
