However, it good do with more than just one shared shower. ##### Jeremy Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon 15 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hostel exceeded all expectations. The room was well presented and clean. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were exceptional. Everything you could need and more. Check in was simple and code came through well in advance. Would definitely come back here again 😊 ##### Sharon Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin 18 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was clean and spacious enough for my 3 friends and I to be comfortable. Everyone I spoke to were friendly. It was easy to walk from there to almost anywhere we went for those few days. I’d definitely recommend this hostel. ##### Justin Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 8 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Affordable, safe, comfortable stay It was comfortable and the woman in reception was super helpful in steering us toward the best places to see northern lights, which natural areas to visit, etc. It wasn’t really walkable to anything, so I think in the future I’d stay somewhere more central. Compared to other hostels, the bathrooms weren’t as convenient on the 1st floor, but the kitchen was spacious and clean and overall a good experience ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Matthew 27 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Never got a confirmation email from the property and never received check in information. Had to work with Expedia to get the information while standing outside in the cold while it was raining. Nothing like being in a foreign country without cell phone signal and having no way to get into the hotel. Everything else about the location was just fine ##### Matthew Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jinfan 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service When we booked this hotel, we were informed that we would receive an email with the entrance code one day before arrival. However, upon arrival, we found no such email in our inbox or spam folder or expedia inbox. As a result, we were left standing outside the hotel in the cold, unable to enter. This forced us to make an expensive international call to the front desk just to gain access to our room — something that should have been seamlessly arranged beforehand. This lack of communication and preparedness was extremely frustrating and unacceptable for a self-check-in property. ##### Jinfan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels near Westfield London Shopping Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Westfield-London-Shopping-Centre-Hotels.0-l6159434-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near El Camison Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/El-Camison-Beach-Hotels.0-l553248621594534883-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Connecting Rooms in Hamburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hamburg-Hotels-Hotel-With-Connecting-Rooms.0-0-d180004-thotelwithconnectingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The New Crown Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Appleby-In-Westmorland-Hotels-The-New-Crown-Inn.h23485495.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Laxá](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Myvatn-Hotels-Hotel-Laxa.h7782386.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Excelsior San Marco](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bergamo-Hotels-Hotel-Excelsior-San-Marco.h527126.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Northolt](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Northolt-Hotels.s50-0-d6250763.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Warners](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Warners-Hotels.s50-0-d6128620.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Jabajak Vineyard Restaurant With Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitland-Hotels-Jabajak-Vineyard-Restaurant-With-Rooms.h4462958.Hotel-Information) > > [The Verandah Antigua - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Willikies-Hotels-The-Verandah-Antigua-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h1660198.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Studland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Studland-Hotels.d182664.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Parking in Manchester City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-City-Centre-Manchester-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-n6192111-0-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Family-Friendly Hotels in Dorset](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Dorset-Family-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d6046198-tFamilyFriendlyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotel Vibra District - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sant-Antoni-De-Portmany-Hotels-Hotel-Piscis-Adults-Only.h1133608.Hotel-Information) > > [Roaches Cottages](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leek-Hotels-Roaches-Cottages.h31385863.Hotel-Information) > > [Ham And Cheese](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malton-Hotels-Ham-And-Cheese-Country-Inn.h6416870.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Whitstable](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitstable-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d6048680-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Luxury beachfront villa Aria - pool, tennis, sunset views & seaside adventures!!](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ermionida-Hotels-Luxury-Beachfront-Villa-Aria-Pool.h18773035.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Simpson Bay (SXM) to Hounslow (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sxm/lhr/philipsburg-to-london) > > [Flights from Antalya (AYT) to Dalaman (DLM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ayt/dlm/antalya-to-dalaman) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Las Palmas de Gran Canaria Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Las-Palmas-De-Gran-Canaria.d2117.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Gelsenkirchen Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gelsenkirchen.d5413.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Vilnius Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vilnius.d6056786.Holidays-City-Breaks) ---
