Allport's Hostel is not close to town. It takes about twenty to thirty minutes to walk from the hostel to town. But it is situated in a area where the night life is good, and there are lots of cafes and restaurants.
This building is very old, and looks rundown from the outside. They have extended it by adding a new section to the back with kitchen, bathrooms, and lounge area. The rooms are big and comfortable, and decorated airy and light.The bathrooms are new but there is definitely not enough bathroom facilities for the amount of rooms, and if this hostel is full this can be a problem. The toilet and shower in the older part needs some tender loving care.
There are two kitchens (although on the smaller side) and a dining area that has a cold and sterile feeling to out. The lounge area is great though! It is big and has a warm and cosy feel to it. It is divided into two areas, one side for the bigger-than-normal-size TV, and the other side just to veg out.This is definitely my favourite part of the hostel. The lounge area is far from the most of the rooms, so you don't hear the noise except for people walking on the creaky wooden floors. Other facilities includes internet, laundry, and off-street parking (although it is small). The hostel has a fun atmosphere, and the location is great for night life.
