    Date of visit: November 2025

    I have experience of challenges around: accessing toilets and moving around.

    Spacious disabled toilet with grab rails but toilet is not raised and sink is not roll underSpacious dorm room with 4 bunks. The lower beds have turning space for wheelchair and are a good height for transfersA spacious shower room toilet with grab rails, sink is not roll under and the shower has a steep, ramped lip to enter and is small. There is a shower seat with no back available.

    Excellent

    Had a great stay at this hostel when it is rare to find cheap, backpacking/hostel options as a wheelchair user. Ramped access and wide doors to enter and all communal areas, friendly staff, 2 accessible toilets (not perfect and shower no good for most) but still good. Lower bunks in room 23 are a great height with good manoeuvring space and can be reserved. There is a fully accessible private room with en-suite which I did not see.
