Grubby and poorly maintained accommodation, walls and furniture were surface cleaned (wiped over with a spray and a cloth) but not properly cleaned, with evidence of heavy use over time e.g. finger marks, scuffing, grease etc which could easily be cleaned with the correct cleaning materials. There were no mattress or pillow protectors under the bed linen, which I would expect to be standard, in particular at this price point. Communal areas, especially bathroom and toilet areas, were not cleaned daily; every 2 days at best, which for an area with up to 8 different people using is concerning and unhygienic. There was no provision of a bathmat, or a mop to use to protect and clean the wet bathroom floors.
It was awful, woke up to an alarm blasting at my ears, dirty and also looks can deceive you in the picture

Functional & Comfortable
If you are looking for a basic, easy place to stay, within walking distance to everything, this place ticks the boxes.
The amenities are very basic however it was helpful to have a washing machine.
Bed was okay, definitely not as bad as some reviews I have read on here but two adults sharing would be a stretch.
Overall pleasant stay, staff are excellent and helpful.
Was walkable location for the fringe and was the cheapest for accommodation in August for the city. The pillows are non-existent. Marks on duvet. Dirty bathroom. Brick for a bed. 3/4 bed was fine for us but we are small, larger people may struggle.
This is an economy option. There are no frills. Zero. don't even think about frills. It's a dorm - which is exactly how it is advertised. It is inexpensive for the market. You buy cheap, you get cheap. As long as you're ok with that - you'll be in a great location in a completely functional accommodation - just don't expect more than functional.
The staff are very friendly and I cannot fault them. Bur stay away if plan on getting any sleep, would have been quieter if we had slept in the car. I thought it was weird when they offered ear plugs at the reception for free, after spending the night over I understand why..
