Stay was good considering it was a backpackers. Air con worked but only just so nights were hot. Cleaners came in every day and did a good job. Bar had a really good atmosphere.

Cons: Reception staff does not know a lot about the city. We ask some information about a famous walk (Conway Walk) but the lady wasn't helpfull at all
Kitchen is so dirty, it smelt bad and it's almost never clean and all common area like TV Room are in the same state. Bathroom are disgusting.

Nice hostel in the thick of things

Beds were pretty comfortable for a hostel, the kitchen came in handy as did the great pub meals which are heavily discounted for tenants. Staff were helpful and any pub concert noise was gone by 11 or 12am.
