j'ai fait des 10aines d'auberges différentes et celle ci est de loin la meilleure que je n'ai jamais fait ! les chambres sont grandes et propres, les espaces communs sont agréables et bien organisés, vous pouvez profitez de cours de yoga ou de soirée cinéma, l'emplacement est IDEAL!! en plein centre et a 2 pas du stade de rugby!! je recommande ++++++ cette auberge

One of the nicer hostels I have stayed in, and I have stayed in quite a few!

GORGEOUS hostel, the rooms are big and absolutely stunning, the en-suite bathrooms are so nice and feel very clean. The kitchen, however, is very small and looked clean at a glance, but you could see that everything used needed a good wash beforehand. This hostel also had sooo much space, people were nice, but because it was so big and there was so much space, everyone found a spot to be alone and on their phone, so it was an odd atmosphere.

Sehr modernes Hostel, Zimmer und Badezimmer sind top modern und sauber. Küche ist ein Witz für die große Anzahl der Zimmer, selber kochen ist fast unmöglich. Zugang zum gesamten Hostel nur über Smartphones, eher nervig als praktisch.

This is one of the coziest and cleanest hostels i’ve stayed at in 3 months of travelling! The female ensuite room was enormous and had 2 bathrooms. The building is pretty big with so much common area space across the floors, and it just had a very nice vibe. 10 minutes to the main streets and riverside etc :)

One of the best hostel I’ve stayed in! It is super clean and modern. The dorm rooms are spacious and there is a larger locker under the bed. There were two en-suites in our 8 bed dorm. Neither of the en-suites had locks which was really strange. The kitchen was so clean and wasn’t too busy during meal times. It wasn’t a very social hostel as a lot of families/older people stay here too. I would recommend!

Clairement l'hostel le mieux équipé et le plus moderne que j'ai fait ! Il y a un espace pour faire du sport, plusieurs terrasses et salon, librairie, salle zen... la cuisine est super bien équipée, c'était vraiment agréable ! Par contre ça reste un énorme hostel, on est loin du côté familial et convivial

One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in, the rooms are extremely clean and each bed has its own curtain/plug etc so you feel self contained and private. Kitchen is also one of the nicest I’ve seen. Didn’t try the social events but was quite easy to meet people.

The rooms were awesome but the community rooms had a nonexisting dining area and the vibe was overall antisocial. The kitchen was too small. If you're planning on staying there for a few nights, you'll be alright. The work out room was pretty cool though!
