Great place to stay for an early airport run. Friendly owner. Stayed in a new build that's work in progress which was fine. Access to breakfast any time. Kitchen to use and quiet rooms. Beautiful new build bathroom on upper floor. Unfortunately locked myself out and had to wake the owner to get back in my room. Al flyer bus was right outside and near train station too. Recommended.

Friendly host, nice breakfast with fresh milk, host specific goes shopping daily to bring fresh goods for breakfast.
The hostel is in the city centre near many bars and restaurant.s

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.
