Front staff were friendly, welcoming and available when needed. Easy simple check in. Secure and safe accommodation and very spacious room sharing. I would recommend choosing this accommodation.

I visited this hostel as a solo traveller from the UK but there was definitely a mix of friends and couples staying in this hostel too. The staff are all super friendly and helpful and its location is great on the little Banff ‘*****’. I can’t stress enough how friendly everyone in this hostel was, I had the best time!

The room is humid and the door is broken. When someone is usually bathroom, you would hear the noise from the fan as a smith hammering the metal.

I booked a 8bed room with female only. However, it turned out was a mix gender room. I was really surprised when I saw some guys are inside the room, cuz I didn’t expect that. The staff is nice, but the female rooms are fully occupied, that I can’t change my room. They finally got a discount for my booking.

You can not expect more for a hostel, given the price you paid, it is worthwhile for a bedding.
