Rooms
Hay Street Traveller's Inn offers an experience tailored for those seeking simplicity and convenience in a central location. The guest rooms are consistently praised for their cleanliness, offering a comfortable and quiet retreat with cozy beds and warm temperatures due to efficient heating. The inn provides private rooms with secure digital locks, ensuring both safety and peace of mind for its guests.

Value for price is a recurring theme, with the hostel offering a good deal for those who prioritize basic necessities over luxury. Although the rooms are generally smaller than expected, they are clean and come equipped with minimal but essential furnishings like a bed and table. Some rooms lack windows, which might not suit everyone's preferences.

For guests seeking a central base close to bus and train links, Hay Street Traveller's Inn proves to be an ideal spot. However, potential visitors should manage their expectations regarding room size and decor, as many rooms are described as basic and sparsely furnished, with some guests drawing comparisons to a prison cell due to their simplicity. Despite these observations, the inn serves as a satisfactory stopover for short stays, offering peace, privacy, and the essential comforts for budget-conscious travelers.

Beds
Hay Street Traveller's Inn offers a mix of experiences when it comes to the comfort of its beds. Guests have found the beds and pillows to be comfortable, providing a cozy night's sleep for some. However, there are notable concerns that could impact one's stay. Many visitors have highlighted issues with outdated mattresses, often describing them as hard, lumpy, and prone to noise due to broken springs. There are mentions of beds needing upgrades due to poor conditions, and some mattresses were perceived as so old that springs were felt through the surface. Unfortunately, a few guests reported encountering bed bugs and insufficient bedding, often limited to a single wool blanket or quilt. The absence of air conditioning or adequate ventilation adds to discomfort on warm nights. Overall, while some guests found comfort in their stay, prospective visitors should be aware of the potential for outdated and basic bedding facilities that may not suit all preferences, especially for those with specific needs like a supportive mattress.
