Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Adults-only policy — The hostel does not accept children or pets, which may not suit families or those travelling with animals.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 17:00, which is narrow for travellers arriving later in the day.
- Some beds noted as firm — At least one guest found the mattress in the female dorm to be on the harder side, a personal comfort consideration.
- Shared kitchen is self-catering — Guests must supply their own tea and coffee, a small detail noted by some.
