Your staff is kind and friendly. The room was actually a bit too warm but otherwise it's a great hostel. I wish the staff at Best Cafe were as nice as the staff at Uptown. I tried to enter Best Cafe and no sooner had I stepped into the doorway when a woman staffer pushed me out closing the door in my face and saying they couldn't take in just one more customer - even with empty tables waiting! I couldn't find another sea food restaurant to eat at - wish there were more of them to choose from when you are hungry between 3 and 5pm and all the good eateries are closed! Thanks for another great stay at Uptown. ##### Noel Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Alex 3 Oct 2023 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Noisy, no sleep here The amount of noise coming from inside this hoste was shocking, with voices from the managers own bedroom, which was right the through the night until after 4, wit constant coughing fits coming from the same room. Not sure what they were smoking? The rest of stay was ok, clean enough and great location. ##### Alex Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 18 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Awesome stay ##### John ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will 19 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Well appointed and centrally located Great hostel.

Dingy, no windows in communical area. This isn't a problem tho. Stay here if you like cold showers and shady room mates. Good free section thought. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Richard 11 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Far too noisy, people allowed in the kitchen until 10.30pm, plus loud people in the common area until all hours. My room was partly pretected by a solid door, but there was no management presence, or supervision in the evening. On Top Backpackers have signs, outlining after 9pm is a quiet time. Nothing like that here. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Erika 2 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 立地が良かったのと、ベッドにはカーテンがあり、コンセントもあります。ライトはコンセントに繋げて充電？して使うものでしたので、個人の充電とは別にケーブル（タイプC）があると便利かと。快適でした。 ##### Erika Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maryse 14 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Hostel pratique Hostel très pratique Proche de tout Personnel sympathique ##### Maryse Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alice 11 Sept 2025 ##### Alice Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pen-y-bryn Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oamaru-Hotels-Pen-Y-Bryn-Lodge.h4478647.Hotel-Information) > > [Unsölds Factory Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Munich-Hotels-Unsolds-Factory-Hotel-GmbH.h51890950.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Hailsham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hailsham-Hotels.d10575.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Spa Hotels in Newby Bridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newby-Bridge-Hotels-Spa-Hotels.0-0-d55381-tSpaHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Restaurant in Caleta de Fuste](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Caleta-De-Fuste-Antigua-Hotels-Hotel-With-Restaurant.0-n6049906-0-thotelwithrestaurant.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Ship Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Spalding-Hotels-The-Ship-Inn.h35248530.Hotel-Information) > > [Dubrovnik Hotels Art Deco Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubrovnik-Hotels-Art-Deco-Rooms.h91570534.Hotel-Information) > > [Hunters Moon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dunedin-Hotels-Hunters-Moon.h9627953.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Olhos de Água](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Olhos-De-Agua-Apartments.d6057196-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Aparthotels Liverpool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Apart-Hotels.d6046241-aaApartHotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Boutique Hotels in Oslo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oslo-Hotels-Boutique-Hotel.0-0-d178295-tBoutiqueHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Seoul](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gimpo-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aGMP-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Buenos Aires (BUE-All Airports) to El Calafate (FTE-Comandante Armando Tola Intl.)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bue/fte/buenos-aires-to-el-calafate) ### Activities > [Things to do in Kintamani](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Kintamani.d6144429.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Sant'Angelo Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAngelo.d6183631.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Champ de Mars](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Champ-De-Mars-7th-Arrondissement.d507786.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Swan Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Swan-Island.dx6354239) > > [Visit Kontokali](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kontokali.dx6051489) > > [Visit Grassington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grassington.dx6160701) ---
