Wycliff was super kind and helpful every step of the way, and he did his best to ensure my stay was comfortable. I really appreciated it! Also: the location is great.
Mattresses were badly dented in the middle. Upon mentioning this, my mattress was later flipped and switched with a board placed underneath, but better quality bedding is definitely needed. Bathrooms also weren’t clean. My blanket was also unclean, and I had to ask to get it changed.

It was very clean and organized. The location is also very accessible, with shops close by. I also enjoyed petting the cat. She made my day. The people I met were amazing and the manager was quite helpful and willing to go the extra mile.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2026
The open layout was nice and staff seemed helpful. There was a kitten who was the best bit.
The bathroom never seemed to be clean, there was always hair on the floor/soap scum in the sink and underwear hanging on the rail.
You get a sheet and pillow case but the duvet is not covered or changed from person to person.
There are no signs saying where the backpackers is from outside and it’s just in an apartment block.
