This wasn't my first stay at this hostel, it's a nice place to stay for a few days, the dorms and common rooms are spacious and the rooftop is a nice place to sit down and have a meal. . The toilets are a bit curious, with signs saying "Please don't throw toilet paper in the toilets". The property is a bit run down, this time there was a water leak in the kitchen, they closed it down on Saturday afternoon and reopened it on Sunday morning. In the meantime I had no access to the food I had put in the refrigerator. Also, there was a problem with the toilet in my dorm, the flush buttons kind of disassembled repeatedly. The toilet was still usable, though. The breakfast was very spartan, but I guess "adequate".

Ive stayed at the post many times previously and was disappointed how far in standards it had fallen since my last visit. I was left waiting for almost hour before i could check in, the room was dirty and the curtains didnt open so I was in total darkeness the entire time and tv didnt work in room Raised both of these issues with reception who didnt care and basically shrugged their shoulders Will never stay there again.

Helpful staff moved us from a room which opened into the courtyard and was v noisy, to a free upgrade to a gallery room which was much better. Breakfast was good. Rooms great, not the cleanest but we were there at a busy time of year and it is a hostel not a hotel! Staff wonderful.
