Rough Guide
"Large and central YHA with seven floors of mostly twin and double rooms – the upper ones with fine city views – plus well-equipped common areas."
Frommer's
"One of the best hostels in the country and hosts over 50,000 guests a year. Its rooms, while spartan are meticulously clean, as is the communal kitchen, which is large enough to handle multiple guests" Full review

Frommer's
"The service is friendly and efficient. But there are some drawbacks... from the exorbitant charge for Wi-Fi to the fact that some rooms overlook a very noisy nightclub." Full review
Fodor's
"The suites on the 28th floor have great views and bigger bathrooms for just a slightly higher price. The website often has quite good deals." Full review
