A cheap place to stay if you need no comfort

The wanderers in is really not a comfortable hostel, but if you screw down your requirements to get a cheap place to stay this place is OK for you.

It was funny to read the article Cheap Sleeps by aah_stone as we had exactly the same room and the same problem, the radiator didn't turn of. It's quite a bit ago we've been there and it seems they didn't manage to fix it in nearly 2 years.

The breakfast is OK, sometimes there are cockroaches between the bagels, but after toasting them (the bagels ;)) it is alright hehe.

The rooms there, at least ours, was really cramped. So if you have more than a bag with you it might be hard! Also the bathrooms are kinda cramped.

Well we took it from the funny side, so we had no problem with it :D If you think it's nothing for you, find something else :)

Unique Quality: Pizza night at wednesday -> be sure to are quick so you get enough ;)

TV at the room!

good heating :))

Cheap Sleeps

Well, it isn't the most glamorous of places to stay. Nor is it all that clean, but it is perfectly adequate if you are not looking for anything special.

We had a room which had a radiator that wouldn't turn off, so we roasted slowly through the night. But hey the bed was comfy if a little rickety. The staff I dealt with were all friendly and eafer to help.

In short this is a good place to stay if you are on a tight budget.

I think another VT member may have mentioned the longer term residents smoking in their rooms/showerooms - it is true and a little annoying.

Unique Quality: Hostel provides a breakfast consisting of bagels and muffins.

An internet station is available.

Bed linen is included.

Wednesday evening a load of pizzaz are delivered to the common room for guests to eat. We missed out because we arrived at 11:30pm :(
