I really liked the property: it was welcoming and friendly, with a nice common area where you could eat, relax, and spend your free time. There was also a lovely garden with outdoor seating, perfect for relaxing.

Staff were very helpful. On arrival we were given a handy map and she went through it with us to show points of interest and supermarkets which was very helpful. Kitchen was great, could do with an oven but not essential and it creates a great atmosphere with people cooking different foods. Location is about a 15min walk to the bus terminal. Great value for money, as a hostel it is what you'd expect but we very much enjoyed.

The room was very comfortable and clean, and had everything I needed. The showers and toilets were also very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was basic, but with good quality bread and jams.
