This property is located right in CBD. It’s very clean and clients are quiet. I was given a top bunk and staff easily changed me to a lower bunk next day. Disco night on Friday downstairs was a bit noisy.

Basic bed in a dorm

As hostels go, pretty expensive for what you get - a box. Obviosuly if you’re going to be out exploring and you just need a bed - then it’s okay. Room was freezing but then inside the “capsule” when the blind is down it’s very hot and the fan does not work well at all. Felt relatively clean although closer inspection there were stains on the duvet and pillow. I saw a baby cockroach in the bathroom but at least just one. Great location in the centre. Loud at night as it’s in the same place as a bar/ darts club. Bed was comfy to be fair. Small drawer under the bed to store luggage - not easily accessible when you’re needing to grab stuff from your bag.

Close to everything in the heart of the city. Only thing is the capsules are what seems to be mould injected or pressed plastic and feel ver flimsy and make all kinds of creaking noises when getting in and out of them. Other than that, all other amenities are good.

I was woken up at 2am my capsule shaking like an earthquake from a couple. I had no choice but to check out middle of the night. Would not recommend if you want to sleep.

Make sure to demand a capsule that actually works.

The capsule I was in was broken. Clearly terrible maintenance. I couldn't lock my capsule and I felt completely vulnerable.

The dorms were clean, quiet and very tidy. Lockers a good size. Bathrooms quite old and damaged tiles etc. Overall quite a pleasant surprise for the price, however the mattress was so thin it was quite uncomfortable to try to sleep on. Ive had neck pain since. If my mattress had have been a bit thicker and comfortable, I would stay again.
