I would like to kindly suggest that the manager consider recommending some form of supervisory support for the cleaning staff. Overall, everything was excellent, from the room prices to the reception service and breakfast is all day whenever you need it. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Only two toilets and two bath in the whole hostel(doesn't distinguish male or female), the room was crazy freezing at night even though I turned the heater to its max power. The duvet was not clean and made me felt itchy. Considering The gap between booking a room in normal hotel and single room here is less than 10 pounds, I strongly recommend to choose the former option.
