“Nice but I shouldn’t have to be there to remind the cleaner that she needs to wash the toilet and the floor every other”
In all honesty it is well organised and I love the environment it’s so cool and nice,the fact that nothing was stolen and non of my beginnings got missing is a very beautiful experience. I recommend.

“Cosy, Quiet and Secure”
The hostel has good communal space and excellent kitchen facilities. It was quiet and felt very secure.Also it was a great bonus to have free parking. It's a little way from the centre ( about 30 minutes walk) but there is a bus. There is a great ice cream parlour across the road. It was good value for money and the room wasn't cramped and it was possible to open the window.

Cheap and cheerful. As my first ever hostel trip it was good. There were lockers that were free if you had a padlock. There was traditional breakfasts items to choose from too. The showers were big and the beds were already made and left untouched. I would visit again for the price alone.
