Excellent. Really nice. Lovely stay. Have not been in a youth hostel for 28 years and my god - this was palatial compared to my youth! Wonderful city centre location with a warm atmosphere, very good beds and bedding and an impressive kitchen. The staff were friendly and welcoming and had a great stay.
Pleasantly surprised - a lot better than other hostels I've stayed in in the past. Comfy bed, clean throughout, and good bathrooms. Staff were very helpful, and the shared kitchen is decent. Excellent price for a private room too. Only complaint is that a lot of rooms face the main road, which as you might expect is pretty noisy.
Great place to stay for one night that did not cost an arm or a leg. Not far from the city centre or the motor point arena. I stayed with 4 other friends in a room with bunk beds and could have fitted in another person if required. Despite having shared bathrooms (3 in total) they were kept nice and clean. The kitchen downstairs was roomy and held facilities for you to cook your own meals and provides some plates, cups and utensils to use. The two staff members that I met were friendly and helpful. Just what you need in a new city. Free wifi is available. Towels can be rented for £1 (prices may have changed since my stay in March '18). The room was paid for on (physical) arrival to the hostel and a £20 deposit was required for each key to the room provided (the money was returned at the end of the stay. Again prices may have changed). I would recommend this place to stay for a couple of nights or if just passing through.
I stayed in one of the private room "pods". Very comfy and pretty quiet up there. An obvious choice for a good night's sleep at a bargain price. Staff are super friendly and helpful. The kitchen is well-equipped and with free tea and coffee! You're expected to do your bit - clean up your rubbish in the kitchen and strip the bed before you go - but that's hardly a big trade-off.
I stayed in 4 hostels in England during my vacation and this was the best. Clean, professional and personal. The building is well kept and the staff were super friendly. The wifi is fine, the kitchen has everything you would need. Free tea and coffee. The painting on the walls really gives it a casual feel. The bathrooms are like that of a house. The location is pretty sweet. It was generally quiet too with the exception of some neighbors drinking.
Stayed at the Anexe. Room was huge and comfortable. Shared bathroom was fine. Only drawback of whole experience was the parking and the fact that nobody seemed to have any idea that there was good parking available blocks away. We had to look for it (for half an hour). In that sense the staff could have been slightly more knowledgeable. Otherwise, good place.
