Luckily someone came in. Otherwise really good stay: friendly staff, bedroom spacious, bed comfortable and great facilities. ##### Amélie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ashley Bambrough 1 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Newcastle on a budget on a Friday night. The first thing that hit me when I walked into the dorm, was the smell of feet. The room was noisy at night, with fellow residents coming in and out and there was plenty of noise from the street bellow, so one would find resting difficult if a light sleeper. My bed was comfortable, but being on the lower bunk had its disadvantages and I woke whenever the occupant climbed up and down the ladder. Apart from that, I felt like I was in a warm and safe space. My fellow room bunkers were all friendly and the hostel staff were also friendly, welcoming and courteous. ##### Ashley Bambrough Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Piotr 23 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### You get what you pay for. Room was clean. Very basic inside. One bunk bed wit double bed at the bottom and single at the top. If you are 6'3 you will struggle as bed not that big. Only one chair the room. No wardrobe or even small table. No mirror in the room. There is an emergency green light in the room that you can't switch off. It's very annoying as it's to bright in the night. To the toilets and shower you have to got to the other side ot the building through the corridor and small staircase. Hot water in the shower, but you can't control temperature so it might be to hot for some. Electric heater in the room wasn't on when we arrived. It took me a while to get it going. Lady at the reception was OK. ##### Piotr Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noel 24 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities All good.

That said I had a private room that was inexpensive. it was warm, comfortable and felt safe. The hostel is excellently placed in the centre of Newcastle near nightlife.

The room had wooden floor that looks dirty and the kitchen/common area was terrible, no cleanliness and the smell when I entered in the kitchen everytime was overwhelming. Only positive point was the central location. Not returning again. ##### Ariane Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ravindra 6 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Everything was hassle free.
