The best PubLove I’ve been too, the white ferry was also very nice. Nothing comes to mind, especially for the price.

• Location – The hostel is situated in a convenient and attractive area. • Price – Very affordable for the area, especially for budget travelers. • Modern facilities – Some parts of the property feel relatively new and up to date. • Too few toilets and showers – Only about 3 toilets and 6 showers were working during my stay, despite around 10 rooms and 18 people in my room alone. • Supplies missing – Soap and toilet paper were repeatedly not refilled. • Wi-Fi issues – The Wi-Fi did not reach the room or was not functional there. • Cramped 3-tier bunk beds – The three-level bunks are extremely tight; you can’t even sit up comfortably. • No bedside lamp or shelf – There’s no lamp or small shelf for items like glasses next to the bed, only charging sockets. • No privacy around beds – No curtains or any kind of barrier to give you personal space at your bunk. • Small lockers – The lockable lockers are too small for a carry-on suitcase; they’re suitable only for smaller items. • Unnumbered lockers / no available space – The lockers aren’t numbered, so in an 18-person room it’s unclear who owns which locker. When I checked in, all lockers were already taken, so I had nowhere to lock my belongings and it can be very challenging to figure out who has more lockers in this number of people. • No food policy – You cannot prepare or even consume your own food on the premises. • No air conditioning – The rooms can get uncomfortably warm. • No towels provided – You need to bring your own towel. • Cleaning frequency – Showers and toilets could be cleaned more often; I often found them in a neglected state.

Location, extremely easy to make your way to all the major attractions and it’s in a quiet neighbourhood Heat, obviously during a heat wave that isn’t common to the uk the rooms would get hot but bigger fans would go a huge distance but for the price you pay honestly I can’t complain to much
