The hostel is average. It is clean and that's about it. It is overpriced and not in the city center. It does have a car park. I suggest you book this Hostel if you have no other choice or you don't mind driving in to the city center, that is what we did.

Stayed one night here with three of my five friends of mine. Rooms were quite cold and the receptionist wasn't having her best day. This place is just for getting some sleep, nothing more. And over 20£ / night rate isn't the most competitive one.

First the good things. I stayed one night and found the staff to be very friendly and helpful and the room (single private room) was clean with a comfortable bed. It was also a bargain in a city with little in the way of budget accommodation for those without transport. The downsides: well as been noted elsewhere it is a... More

This hostel is busy as Aberdeen is an expensive place to stay. But it definitely does not deserve four STB stars. The bed are actually pretty good. And the building is spacious and attractive with some parking. But - The toilets and showers are not kept clean, and there is often no toilet roll. The showers are unpredictable. The basins... More

Aberdeen is no Edinburgh and does not have much in the way of a tourist industry. As a result the amount of reasonably priced places to stay in Aberdeen are very limited. After being quoted some ridiculously high figures for B&B accommodation I opted to stay in this hostel for the best part of 2 weeks (due to a work... More

Lovely hostel in an interesting building and quite a peaceful district. Pity there aren't any shops, pubs and restaurants but there's a bus stop right outside the hostel. Good cooking facilities. We enjoyed visiting Old Aberdeen and the harbour. Friendly and helpful managers.
