The fact the rock n bowl motel is very close to the strip of shops at Cabot circus, as well as a few bars only a couple minutes walk away was very convenient. There was plenty to do in the bar to start the night off and it was perfect for our lads weekend. The only issue we had was the cold showers. Only one shower in the block was warm, but besides that it’s exactly what you see on the pictures

Our twin room was lovely. It was clean, quiet with extremely comfortable beds. Rock n Bowl is excellent value for money in a great central location. We enjoyed our stay and hope to stay there again.

This is what we expect from a hostel. The location is amazing. The man at the reception was lovely and very helpful with everything. The bed stuff was very clean but the bedroom floor smelled like pee, the showers and sinks were not that clean either.

Good everything except the unbelievably loud music from 2 floors down. Loud, terrible and horrible music being played from 9pm-12am straight. No good if you want to sleep or be in the room at all in these times. Other than that, it's good. But for the loud music, which makes the room vibrate too, I won't come back.

Main positives about this hostel are the location and price. It's staffed by a single person late at night and check-in took really long because he was dealing with another issue. It was perfectly serviceable for one night's stay while travelling light.

It's a good position and very good price with also a surprising basic breakfast too. The building is old, not so clean and with the minimum items available, but with such an accessible price it's perfect if you go there for a night. Unfortunately on a Wednesday night it was very loud from outside, with people drinking and shouting after midnight.

Good location for the city. Clean comfortable room. Staff were really friendly. Great value with breakfast included. The basin area needs somewhere to hang towel, clothing etc; as did the room. Being on a top bunk there was nowhere to put my belongings. Lockers would be useful.

As per other reviews, it was a little noisy Saturday night, as some of the rooms look into the club's courtyard. This was my first stay in a hostel and I was genuinely surprised with how good it was. Very comfortable bed and bedding, the facilities were good and it was very clean all round. I've stayed in worse hotels for a lot more money, will definitely stay here again, but not in a Saturday.

Big kitchen/dining area. Staff are nice. Location very close to city centre. Bathroom (male) facilities not maintained. No fan/air con in rooms and nights were stuffy and hot in the 12 bed dorms even with windows open. Just felt very uncomfortable as a place to stay.
