An ideal spot for the budget traveller
Our only problem was the time the food we had stored in the fridge was either thrown out by mistake or taken by somebody else. The friendly staff tried to make it up to us by replacing it with some frozen pizzas that somebody else had left behind. It was obvious not much could be done about our problem, so the gesture was appreciated.
Unique Quality: The youth hostel is located just a few minutes' walk from most of the main attractions as well as an Atlantic Superstore.
The charming 18th-century facade and the giant lobster painted on our door were nice touches.

A Cheap Place to Stay
I stayed in this place for a couple of months and met a whole lot of nice people.
There are several different options at this place:
- private room (they don't have many so book ahead of time)
- 2 bunk room - 10 bunk room
Good things to know :
___________________________________
-areas of the hostel are divided up for a non-co-ed stay
-some rooms have a private washroom (including shower) and others have shared washrooms
-bedding is provided
- there's no cerfew
- it's right in the heart of the city ... close to the train station, the waterfront, shopping, and within walking distace to all of the bars
- there are group activites to take part in such as day trips, and pub crawls
- everyone is really friendly
Unique Quality: There is a shared kitchen.
You can choose your own little shelf on the wall, and your own spot in the fridge to keep your food (just put your name on it so they know not to toss it... or eat it).
There is also a shared lounge with a couple of couches, a couple of pay internet kiosks, and a tv.
Next door there is a pub so you won't have far to stumble before you reach your bed (mostly older people frequent that pub though so I sugest you venture a little further walk than next door).
