Reviews

Victoria 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Convenient and comfortable.

Pros: Lovely roof top terrace and brilliant location. Helpful staff (via WhatsApp...).

Cons: I never met any staff during my stay...but everything was fine! Just bring earplugs if you stay here as it can get noisy - just a result of being so central!

Pros: New owner was very welcoming and accommodating. Still a work in progress with renovations but she made sure I was comfortable!

Cons: Renovations going on, couldn't be helped though it was good of them to honor my booking despite only just taking over

Pros: We stayed in Faroway hostel for 2 days just now in December. We’ve seen some bad opinions but we were pleasantly surprised. The rooms are nice, maybe not super new but the hostel is currently renovated. The new owner very very friendly and helpful!! Location perfect for exploring the city, close to restaurants, main square etc. Definitely recommend for this price!

Excellent!!!

Pros: The location is superb. Close to the bus station. That's helped me to get the bus station early in the morning. it takes only. 5 minutes of walking. From the balcony you will see the busy street. Everything is just in walking distance. There is a rooftop where you can chill with your friends. At this price staying one night was worth it. I couldn't expect much more than that.

Cons: Outside was a bit crowdy which can have problem in sleeping. Shared bathroom was clean enough.

Pros: Stayed here many times. Very convenient city centre location, ideal when you have take the 5am airport bus. I love the 6 single bed female dorm. Clean and quiet. Good kitchen, bathrooms and terrace.

Cons: The new keypad entrance system is a bit difficult for short people. Bathrooms and kitchen upstairs.
