Upon arrival I was fortunate enough to get an upgraded room & the hostel overall was pretty quiet. I personally didn't mind & there were extra blankets & a heater for the room. Also Brett runs a shuttle so I was able to get to the IG famous Tarn that I probably wouldn't have otherwise. Be warned it's a lot of steps but so worth it if the weather is in your favor!

Very plush carpet, none of that industrial quality so often used in motels, I could actually sink my toes into it. Good quality linens clothes hanging rail, iron and ironing board and hair drier, kitchen well equipped.
