Good room in a hostel

Our room had huge sliding door windows which gave us a wonderful view of the lovely trees. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was fresh. Staff friendly. Location is great for the old town, the pier and restaurants.

This is a really great hostel. Perfectly located in the historic centre and yet close to restaurants and shops. A warm welcome and helpful staff throughout who all seem to enjoy their roles. They even provided a towel as well as fresh linen for the dormitory beds. Really nice design for the hostel - clean and bright.

Lovely stay

It's more a hotel than a hostel. I had a great stay. Halfway between the bus station and the old town. They allowed me to leave my bag there after check out.

The staff was nice and helpful. The bed was comfortable and the dorm was quiet at night. They have a small garden outside. The location is not too far from the bus and the ferry terminal (about 10 minutes to walk).

Lovely staff and great location. Clean and well equipped.

Very nice location in the UNESCO center. It's on a side street meaning you have all the pros of the city center but also it's quiet at night. The casino in front doesn't bother at all, I didn't even hear it or the people coming from there. The staff was always lovely and there is a 24/7 reception. The bathrooms were always clean and enough for all the guests. The kitchen is located outside which can be bad on a rainy day but honestly it didn't bother me at all. It's nicely equipped and the fridge and stove etc was always clean.
