If you are looking for a budget trip, it would be a great idea and lots of restaurants nearby. However, it is quite noisy during midnight and weekends (pub street).
Staffs are so helpful and nice.

Good backpackers. Huge kitchen and dining . Nice people
Great location ... pubs, eateries. Noise lasted well into evening, but it was a Saturday night. Really nice place. Bathroom/shower were good.

Britannia on William is pretty good for a backpackers. Just make sure that you bring earplugs (if you actually want any sleep), because it's very noisy.
I only planned to stay one night, but it was so comfortable that I ended up staying a week. It's conveniently located near the station, and the staff are kind. The large kitchen makes it easy to interact with other residents. I had a comfortable stay, like being part of a family.
The bar downstairs plays music at 12 o'clock every day, so we can't sleep.

Food street/ pubs right next door. Bathrooms a bit average but staff were awesome and helpful. Some rooms have long term guests that can be a bit messy but not bad if passing through.
Very noisy at night, not clean (carpet), dirty shared kitchen and bathroom.
The double room is lit all night by the corridor light.

The Property and its Location wad awesome. However its a bit noisy in the evening as it is surrounded by Pubs, Bars and Restaurants.
Helpful staff and very clean Bathrooms and toilets. However Old smelly room carpets and Noisy Old wooden Corridor floor needed to be changed ASAP.
It was overcrowded too.
