I was there in '03

Not been, but would love to go
The un-renovated/rebuilt bits (large bits) of town would be quite disturbing to see, I reckon.

We got chased out of the hostel swimming pool at midnight by the enraged owner
He was wielding a baseball bat.
Fun times :D

God forbid you should actually *use* the facilities...
I'm worried now. Perhaps I'll go to Bournemouth instead.

It was closed after 10pm, so his response was perfectly reasonable :P
the owner's excuse was that we could have been ak47-toting gangsters, though how useful a baseball bat would have been against an AK is debatable.
