Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited private space — All rooms are dormitory-style, so you’ll be sharing with others. Some guests mention privacy curtains, but there are no private rooms available.
- No on-site parking — There’s no parking available at the property, which may be inconvenient for those driving. Most guests are walkers using public transport.
- Check-in only between 16:00 and 22:00 — If you arrive earlier or later, you may need to plan around the check-in window. There’s no 24-hour reception mentioned.
- Small-scale property — With only dorm rooms and a shared lounge, the hostel has a more intimate feel, but it may not suit travellers looking for a full-service hotel experience.
