The location was great. The facilities a bit rumpty, but reasonably clean (which we didn't mind as cost was very good). We think there were bed-bugs, not nice.

Quirky, rambling hostel that feels like an original YH. Basic facilities available.

Quite a cool little place for a cheap price on the waterfront. Soft bed but a small room that provided all I needed...except noisy neighbours waking me at 4.30am, 2 nights in a row....yeah, not ideal.
