Stayed in the newer section and the kitchen was really nice and spacious. It was also quiet at night, and front desk was very helpful.

This is on the uni property and close to BSI for easy access to bus system. Lots to do nearby without being in the tourist area. Quiet and relaxing. Easy walk into town center.

Great stay especially if you are on a budget
Very easy to walk to from bus terminal (10 mins) and same for getting into centre. Very clean with comfortable beds. Helpful staff at front desk. Use of kitchen with fridge space so you can keep costs to a minimum if you wish. Jigsaws in the lounge area if you wish something to do in the evenings. Shared toilet/showers but these are very clean so wasn't an issue. Would stay again quite happily.

The location and the rooms were great. The check-in was rather unfriendly by person at the reception. Rather abrupt. The other aspect that we did not understand was the bathroom. Everytime we had a shower, nearly the whole floor got wet. The Shower had a shower curtain, though.

We had an excellent stay at Student Hostel. It was an easy walk to the downtown area which offers so much to see and do. The bus stop is right outside the hostel if you’d like to explore a little further. The beds were very comfortable which left us well rested for our next day’s adventures.

Safe, quiet and a walking distance from BSI terminal. Reception staff were pleasant and accommodating. Its a bit of a walk to get to a supermarket or a restaurant but nothing is too far.

The hostel is beautiful and I wouldn't call it a hostel (based on other ones I have stayed at). The staff upgraded my room to the newer area with a private bathroom which was incredible. The common areas are high quality with large kitchens and enough space for multiple groups to do their dinners. I found it a wonderful place to stay, warm and welcoming, and a place I will definitely recommend to people travelling in the Summer, as well as a place I would come back to.

It's on the main road, easy to start your car trip from there.A few minute walk to get to the city centre. The mattress could be a bit harder, but it's a common problem in the whole island

Wszystko zgodnie z opisem. Jedynie na 1 piętrze popsuty czajnik elektryczny, co zmusza do gotowania wody w kuchni piętro niżej. Pomimo nieczynnej recepcji, zameldowanie w godzinach nocnych bezproblemowe. Generalnie polecam.
