It's located on very steep street. Bathroom and bedroom was clean. Window hinge was broken and I couldn't close window properly and cold air was coming in. My room was located by the door to go down stairs, so it was noisy. But very handy location and fit for my purpose.

Like many, stayed a bit longer than planned

Incredibly helpful and genuine staff who were always happy to help - very knowledgeable about the area and always on hand to answer questions. Nice schedule of events each evening (which isnt for me but was again very welcome and i can really see how some guests would really appreciate it. Slight disparity of kitchen facilities available when comparing ground floor to others. Cant be helped though - i imagine things get moved all the time. All in all, a great stay for the price for which you do get more than you pay for in terms of assistance and a nice communal hub

Great price for an easy stay. Lovely place the staffs are very friendly and all the guests are friendly and polite, the place is tidy and safe. We had the private ensuite room, small but offered everything we needed. It was a little bit noisy as the room is near laundry and kitchen but we were good sleepers so no border. Definitely recommend it.

There's a rule not to use the kitchen between 23:00 - 07:00. But some guest may didn't know. Not sure the staff has been acknowledged or not.
