Stayed here over the weekend just gone on a stag weekend. Rooms are cheap but for a reason, i wouldnt put a homeless person in them The room was covered in black mould and damp on the walls, complete heath hazard. Beds broken and repaired with gaffer tape. Shower doesnt drain away fast so you stand in the previous dirty... More

Hi Paul thanks for taking the time out to share your experience with others Not the greatest review we have had recently and as you can see we are having a good run ! Our prices are competitive but that’s not because we ignore basic cleaning / safety standards It is well known that stag groups can be problematic and... More

For a hostel this place seemed quite pricey but I think that is just Brighton for you. We paid for a private twin room and actually had a private room with 2 bunk beds in. The room was clean and a reasonable size. The en-suite shower/toilet were very small but clean. The hostel was quite noisy with people coming and... More

Overall it was ok. I didnt expect much with it being a hostel, however i did expect atleast hand soap in the toilet, just the basics really. Staff were overall friendly. It is very loud, no carpets onstairs or landings. We went to bed at about 3am and was still woken by slammed doors etc. Maybe fit restricters on the... More

Place is shabby overall. Kitchen facilities looked okay. Bedroom was rubbish- 3 bunkbeds. We ended up taking the mattresses off the top bunks and sleeping on them on the floor as one of them looked as though the bars on the top bunk were about to break off. Toilet/shower was tiny, water kept changing from hot to cold frequently whilst... More

Lovely staff, good kitchen utilities. Pretty good atmosphere though the lounge area is quite small (I think they are renovating though). Creaky beds, no lockers in the rooms which was a bit annoying. Overall good for the price and no real complaints. 30 min walk to Brighton beach, but the walk is really nice. More

Had a good nights sleep, comfy beds and perfectly clean. We messed up our booking and the manager Josh was most helpful in sorting it out. Very close to the beach at Hove and a lovely walk into Brighton. More
