Nice relaxed hostel to stay at. Shower in shared bathroom could benefit from a bit of tlc around corners of shower base but overall very happy with the cleanliness, bedding & bunk areas great and well equipped and warm and secure.

Had a very comfortable and convenient 4 day stay in female 4 bed ensuit room. Everything was great. Only issue I had was the noise coming from closing of doors out of other rooms with bangs and loud noises in the middle of the night other than that I had a lovely stay. I would highly recommend it.

Værelset var fint og nydeligt og det var skønt med badeværelse på værelset
Great hostel! Only thing is louldy bangig doors and music playing inside rooms from 9am until 10pm. Short walk away from Riverside and even shorter walk to botanical gardens and park.
