I got bedbugs here. Room 39. Other than that, great hostel! Great location, lots of events, free meals, relatively clean bathrooms, good atmosphere in the common spaces. But I can’t ignore the 8 itchy red spots I came home with.

Excellent hostel, quick check in, safe, no bed bugs. Bedding appeared clean and smelt really nice. Receptionist friendly and welcoming - staff appear as if they are happy to talk to you. Room was fairly clean, although there was a minor bit of rubbish probably left by a previous guest that wasn’t seen by housekeeping. Free dinner which was great and I liked how they encouraged hostelers to talk to each other by promoting game activities during dinner. International sale of lost clothes from previous travellers for $5 which was quirky and interesting. The breakfast was decent, I like how they offered juice and a wider range of food options compared to other hostels. I liked how all bathrooms were separate which gave it a homely feel and they were all quite relatively clean. I also liked how they provided shampoo shower gel and conditioner which was super useful to me as a backpacking individual. Lots of signposts on things to do and how to sign up to it as well as a rideshare sharing area. Overall, would return to this hostel.

BED BUGS in bed 2B!!! I have never left a 1 star review before but after jumping out of bed early in the morning from itching my legs to find eight bed bug bites I definitely will not be returning here. Fyi I shower just before going to bed every night and there was absolutely nothing on either of my legs. This didn't seem to be an unusual occurrence as the front desk staff gave me a whole rundown and knew exactly how to deal with the situation, however, refused any refunds as they were "unable to locate any bugs"?! I guess the bites on my legs weren't enough evidence? It probably also doesn't help that the whole place is covered in old carpet for any bugs to travel across the entire hostel. Although staffs were friendly the itch and redness from the bites will last weeks and the whole experience is not worth saving a few dollars compared to alternative places to stay.

Analyse de l'ambiance
L'auberge a un setup social solide : grande salle commune, fêtes dans la ballroom, activités du soir et une cuisine qui sert beaucoup. Il y a petit-déjeuner gratuit, réception 24 h/24 et consigne à bagages, donc cela peut bien fonctionner comme base de ville animée avec des gens autour et des choses qui se passent. L'emplacement est central, avec cafés, bars et autres spots de la ville à proximité. L'endroit peut sembler vivant et pratique à la fois, surtout si tu veux un séjour qui penche social plutôt que calme. La qualité des chambres varie. Certaines chambres sont petites, certaines sont dans un bâtiment séparé à deux pâtés de maisons, et les escaliers font partie du setup. Le bruit peut être un vrai problème depuis la rue, la vie nocturne proche et l'intérieur du bâtiment, et les parties anciennes du lieu peuvent sembler usées.
Signaux à vérifier
- Pas d'ascenseur ; les escaliers peuvent être pénibles avec de gros sacs.
- Le bruit peut venir de la rue, de la vie nocturne et de l'intérieur du bâtiment.
- Certaines chambres sont petites et basiques.
- Certaines chambres sont dans un bâtiment séparé à deux pâtés de maisons.
- La propreté et l'entretien peuvent être rudes, avec cafards, moisissure, fourmis et chambres usées.
