Very nice cozy hostel. Has been updated recently. Stayed one night in a private room. Room was decorated with artwork on the walls. Common area is nice. Location is a little bit out of town but still walking distance to everything. Kitchen might be a bit small when everyone is cooking but gas range is nice and lots of pots... More

10 of us stayed here in april 2011 for a friends 21st. 2 nighs. Excellent for the price. Friendly staff. Great facilities. Room clean and tidy - shower in the room not the best but a communal one was ok. Close to the shops about 20 min walk to the main bars/clubs. Beds suprisingly comfy. I would stay again. More

arrived on 29 August, payment was taken straight away from me. Our bedroom had a beautiful big window and view of the street. Like the least: - My children were not impressed with the bedroom.

I arrived at the hostel and was told i could not get in until 6pm not what I call a warm welcome!! I thought it was terrible I can honestly say I think the bed had been slept in the previous night and the linen had not been changed. Also the room did not look like it had been cleaned.... More
