The corridors/communal areas were messy, old and dated. The bedroom needed a make over to make it feel lighter and more modern. There were people playing table tennis till about 4 in the morning and it could be heard from our room. But I suppose it's a hostel so this is to be expected!

During the festival, the price seemed reasonable. The communal showers and toilet areas were very clean. There was a big kitchen to make meals if you were on a budget.

Interesting building

Stayed in June 2025

Our bunk room smelt very musky. Not sure if it was moss or dirty sheets/carpet but it wasn’t incredibly pleasant in our room.

It was very cool staying in the old church. Facilities and common room were all good.

The place was pretty noisy, unfortunately. It didn't help where our room was situated as we were right next to the canteen, the cleaning cupboard and the male showers so there was noise constantly through the night so we didn't really sleep. Minus the noise the hostel was great! Just wish we were situated somewhere slightly quieter in the hostel.

Loved the location! A hostel in an old church was really cool to see and wasn't far from the centre. Our room was cosy and clean. The beds were very comfortable! Staff were lovely too.

I stayed in a bedroom for six. Even though there were only five of us, the air in the room was very bad in the morning, only possible ventilation was through a ceiling window, which we could not reach to open.

Located within walking distance from the city center in beautifull Dean Village. Attractive interior for those who can appreciate original and unussual things. Spacious and well-equipped kitchen, nice and comfortable common room.

Easy 25 minute walk into city centre or a quick 5 minute walk to catch tram. We had a private room with shared bathroom. Had no problems accessing it whenever it was needed. Bathroom very clean.

Nice people, cool church set up, nice kitchen,

Our room was on the main floor near an emergency exit out the back. There was someone doing work on their car for the majority of our stay just outside our room/the outside hallway. So in addition to the noise, there was a bit of a security concern with the door being left open and unattended. Also meant the whole back hallway was freezing cold as any hot air from our room just got pulled out. Also, I don't know if the garbage was out the back in the same area or what, but there was a lingering smell in the hallway, full garbage bags that sat inside the back door, and despite the relative emptiness of the low season, it seemed like we were in a pretty high traffic area. There is NO cancellation or refund policy, even for one night of a longer stay. My partner and I had considered an extra day in our previous destination but there was no flexibility in this booking, so something to consider.

Pretty cool novelty getting to stay in a converted church! Generally speaking the volunteer staff were kind and friendly. We booked during the off season, so it was a pretty empty space compared to what it might be during peak. Decent amenities, pool table, tv/game room, foosball, and large kitchen. Overall, one of the better hostel experiences I've had.

The only thing that was a ever so slight downer was that they had no shampoo in the showers

I loved the atmosphere of the property and how comfortable the beds were!

Stayed in March 2025

The shower was hot but the flow wasn't very good. Also the rest of the hostel outside our room was very cold but that's kind of understandable given it's a huge old converted church.

Quiet, clean hostel with very good kitchen facilities (even though I didn't use them); the twin room we stayed in was very warm and comfortable. Point added for tea making facilities in the bedroom. Nice spacious bathroom.

The location is a bit far from the city and where everything is at, but take a bus and it's not bad, for the price it was worth it. Noise traveled, which didn't bug me, but if that matters to you that's something to keep in mind.

Very clean and nice. Bathrooms are newly updated and kept super clean. Staff was super accommodating. Building is old but charming and clean.

so don’t expect a lot. Good for a one night quick and cheap stay.

Money’s worth

There was a strong cleaner smell In the showers and washrooms that was unpleasant.

The uniqueness of the church and the artwork on the walls

It was quite an experience to sleep in the church. I kinda wished it was decorated like that. The bed was super comfy.

Nothing

The host was very friendly and the place had a brilliant vibe. We liked the kitchen and the common room very much

Stayed in September 2024

The bathroom smelled very humid and needed a way to air out.

The manager was very friendly and Informative. The beds were good sizing and comfortable. It's interesting and pretty cool to stay inside an old church

Stayed in September 2024

The bed where really short I couldn’t seat regularly, and the messy sometimes in the toilet and the didn’t tell of the people to keep the quiet and the respect of other people in the room

I like the idea to sleep in a church and the style of the hostel inside . I like the position as well

Stayed in September 2024

Its an old church building converted into hostel, so obviously its not a modern place - I was fine with that but it may not be for everyone.

I stayed in a single room accommodation, which was all for me, with shared bathroom. The place was clean enough, even though the building is very old and windows would allow draft to come through. It was no problem at all in June but I can't imagine being there in Winter. The heating is good otherwise and overall the place worked out all fine for me. The canteen was filled with young people - nice vibe but was a bit too loud with the karaoke playing

Stayed in July 2024

All is a bit old (rooms, mattress) and there is mold. Out of the city center

Cosy common room, big kitchen! Cool building, even though old.

All good.

Well organised and run, easy check-in and reasonably priced.

Stayed in June 2024

It is smelly, ground floor toilets are not clean most of the times.

Location, value for money

Stayed in June 2024

The toilets had a rough smell, the showers needed some TLC as well and the toilet/shower spaces just seemed to be falling apart slowly. The walls are all paper thin, so you can hear conversations from all over.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The beds are comfortable in the 8person dorm and the kitchen is quite big! It's also in an old church, which you don't get to see much of but it's still really special.
