Cute little room - a little small but that was to be expected. Bathrooms and room were clean, and there was a sauna and laundry facilities too. Loved our stay here!

Get what you pay for.
Our twin room with ensuite room was clean and tidy. Bathroom space was not utilised and did not provide shelf/counter space or hooks for two. The kitchen was atrociously out of date in comparison to the rest of the place, which was clean and pleasantly decorated. Large communal area was cold, asked to have the big gas fire place turned on when 2bus loads of extra people arrived - an oil heater was added to the communal area.

I had a good stay. The staff was friendly. The hostel is well located and the room was warm and nice. But as seems to be the problem in other Haka Houses, the corridor, bathroom and lounge were freezing.

Great place to stay overnight. Many dining options very close. A bit noisy until 10pm, then quiet, so no complaints.

只有外面
衛浴設備太少，廁所垃圾桶都滿出來
廚房太髒，桌面、爐台、餐具都髒亂都在一旁
房間的垃圾桶完全沒清，還留著前住客的滿的垃圾桶。
床邊插座沒有共用無法充電

Great location and hostel has huge potential to be so nice.. rooms and bathrooms were clean on arrival but unfortunately they are severely understaffed and can see the affects after a day or two (no toilet paper and kitchen/bathrooms are disgusting). Not a reflection on current staff who were very nice but something management needs to look at.

Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Bad für 3 Personen. Alles sehr sauber, auch das Bad. Der Aufenthaltsraum neben offener Küche war sehr gemütlich. In der Küche ist alles vorhanden. Es gibt einen Kaffeeautomaten (mit Zahlung), aber keinen Aufzug, was aber in den 1. Stock noch kein Problem ist.

Beds were comfortable, quiet at night. We had workmen making building noise (banging, drilling) outside our room for both afternoons, which was really annoying and hopeless given the cost of the room. Overall, clean and well run, weird having to put our sheets out with the room cost!

Too noisy
Really noisy. Dryer started at 10pm and was finished an hour later but started every 2 minutes for 1 minute the next hour. So only quiet about midnight. it was so loud it was noisy. not even earplugs could block out the sound. really noisy. dryer started at 10pm and was finished an hour later but started every 2 minutes for 1 minute the next hour. then only quiet until midnight. it was so loud that not even earplugs could block out the sound. Furthermore the door to the toilet banged so hard that it could be felt in the bed. so I was woken up every time someone had to use the toilet. But it was clean and the beds/rooms were nice. but there was so much noise that I would never stay there again.

Rent, men asocialt
Det var meget rent og alt er i god stand, men ingen snakkede med hinanden. I loungen sad folk bare med deres telefoner. Det blev ensomt, at være solo rejsende der

The service here was amazing.
But the only down side is it's so loud like you can hear everything it could just have been bad luck with the person next to our room.
