Very clean amenities and in close proximity to the train station. Breakfast can be purchased at a reasonable price and there is also a kitchen available if you want to make your own food.
As for drawbacks, I’d say the bunk beds (especially the upper bunk) tend to creak a fair bit, and there was no water for several hours in the morning, making it very inconvenient to go to the bathroom or wash up. The bedside lamps are also too bright. Perhaps dim yellow ones would be better. All being said, it was still a nice stay.

A satisfactory stay in this hotel. About 20 mins walking distance to city areas and bus services/duration were not worth waiting for. Location of hotel is ok for the amount paid, but cleanliness was not very good. Many of the cups were left with yellow stains when you are preparing for breakfast. Water pressure was not as strong in shower room and drain scupper was partly clogged and not rectified even after raising same to the reception. Good full kitchen facilities were provided. An open-roof toiler was noted on the ground floor, wondering how to use with ease in emergency.

Had a great stay in a private room at this hostel. There are sinks inside the bunk rooms. Toilets and showers are shared, but not inaccessible and rather close by. Anticipate a 20 minute walk if you arrive by National Express coach.
