Staff really helpful allowing me to check in early and clearly have a great cleaning regime. However the place itself is looking a little tired and needs an update and lick of paint. Great value for money however!

Staff responded promptly to any requests or issue. I just think it's a shame that so many hostels don't provide anything for hand drying in toilets.
