Britannia on William

Clean room and friendly staff

If you want to sleep at any point during your trip. DO. NOT. STAY. HERE. Firstly, I'm not a moaner- I've travelled all over and stayed in some notably rough places but this hostel was by far the worst. First, the noise was unbearable- long termers sit downstairs and in the corridors shouting (and I literally mean this) till all hours of the morning and staff (which there is always one manning reception 24/7) do absolutely nothing about it. There is no noise proofing in rooms as there is an open netted window above the doors, so it feels like everyone is literally in the room with you. In the morning from about 5am (so you've had at this point maybe 2 hrs of "quieter" time since the night people have stopped) everyone starts stomping around (the floor boards are so noisy) and talking loudly and again you hear EVERYTHING, I had to sleep with my headphones at full volume playing white noise to get any ounce of sleep. I'll keep the rest of this mess brief, my room was infested with these tiny flies that covered all the walls. The bed sounded like it was going to fall to pieces, any move and the squeaking noise was insane- I had to move beds but safe to say it wasn't much better. The place is just worn down, showers either broken or boiling/freezing, toilets broken or gross with sanitary bins overflowing, not worth a single dollar let alone 60 odd a night!- I've literally paid 2 dollars for a night in better in SE Asia. Please please do not waste your hard earned money on this.

If you are looking for a budget trip, it would be a great idea and lots of restaurants nearby. However, it is quite noisy during midnight and weekends (pub street). Staffs are so helpful and nice.

Good backpackers. Huge kitchen and dining . Nice people

Excellent
