  • Brooke Verified guest review

    Positive This place was so great, friendly staff/ volunteers and people! Great events every night. Felt safe and was very clean. Dale at the front desk is top notch!

  • Downie Verified guest review

    Positive The breakfast was a bargain, cup of tea, toast, juice, bowl of cereal, banana and more. A pleasant atmosphere. The exuberance and conviviality of the staff from many different countries made me feel younger than my years. Everyone was pleasant helpful and always greeted me as if I was an old friend. This was my third or fourth time at the High Street Hostel

  • Belinda Verified guest review

    Positive The hostel is located in the city centre of the Old Town, and all the attractions are within walking distance. The room and bed were clean and comfortable. The hostel is inside an old historic building, and although the facilities are a bit dated, everything works well.
