Stayed 2 days in Portsmouth and chose this hostel just because of location. I got what I expected and almost what I needed. Slept in quite spacious room for 4, first night slept on my own, second one 3 luckily very friendly guys joined my room. Reception does not technically exist, I met the guy just on my arrival, not...

This was the only hostel i could find in portsmouth and southsea. I got a bed in a dorm for 4 people. Luckily the 2 other people in my room were nice and tidy and didn't snore load. I was cramped even with only 3 of us in there. There is only 1 shower and 1 toilet on each floor... More

I was running in the Great South Run and had travelled up during the night after work. The accomodation in the area had been fully booked and unsurprisingly this place had a spare bed in a dorm. The entrance to the hovel should be a standard for the interior. Steps leading to the reception were damaged and filthy. There were... More

It's a hostel so you can't go in with high expectations. Presumably you are just looking for somewhere cheap to crash for the night, which is all my friend and I were looking for. We were in the room right at the top of the stairs. The guy at reception wasn't rude but his grasp of English wasn't amazing. There... More

If I could give this place a zero I would. I can easily say that this was without doubt, THE WORST place I have ever stayed in my entire life. My husband and I, a young Australian couple, have been travelling in Europe for six months or so and this definitely takes the cake as the worst place by a... More

We had booked to stay here for one night before we got the ferry to Ryde to Bestival early next morning After reading the scary reviews of this place, I didnt hold out much hope for this little hostel! Okay sure when we arrived the outside looked quite out of place compared to the nicely decorated surrounding buildings. But when... More

Only a matter of time before the appropriate authorities close this health hazard down. No working toilets, rude staff, broken glass amoung some other very questionable pieces of litter... Please avoid this place at all costs. I cannot emphasise this piece of advise enough!!!

I will begin by saying we stay in many budget hotels throughout the year and normally find that those with bad reviews are usually not as bad as reviews make out - THIS ONE IS every bit as bad as people say! The Irish "boy" on reception was purely ignorrant and unhelpful, in fact plain rude and things only got... More

We spent there one night in the only available ensuite room they had to offer. The room was filled with dirty bulk rubbish. I didn't dare to sit on the armchair and nearly avoided the bed. There was no light at the beds - there was no bedside locker. For the "bathroom" I don't know how to express it -... More
