"Une auberge chaleureuse très bien située !"

9.0

L’auberge est calme et chaleureuse. La salle de jeux et de lecture rendent le séjour encore plus agréable. De manière générale, les espaces communs sont propres et bien équipés. Les dortoirs sont assez spacieux. Je recommande à 100 % cette auberge située en plein centre et à quelques minutes seulement de la gare.

"Ideal accommodation for a stopover in Dundee!"

7.0

I was grateful to be upgraded from a single room to a twin. The extra space was brilliant. Bathroom a great size with properly hot water for a hot shower. Bed was nice and comfy and I appreciated the tea making facilities.

The only point to highlight is that ear plugs might have been useful to block out the shouting and screaming of the locals who were hanging around the area in front of the hostel till the early hours of the morning.

Spacious, tidy kitchen. Staff very helpful.

Noisy on the high street until late, then through the night. Inconsiderate people about.
