The place has a perfect location, is clean, but I think the rooms are a little uncomfortable, is a good option more because of the price :)

Good hostel, but not cheap. Great that facilities are available but you pay for everything. Staff great and friendly. They will go out of their way to help. The rooms are spacious but in mid summer, uncomfortably hot. Overall a pleasant experience.

This is the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Not only is it in a central location with easy access to the University and other points of interest, they have some nice facilities. Obviously the building itself is part of the equation. Mad sleeping somewhere older than my country. A thanks to Brian and his afternoon shift colleague. You were amazing hosts.
