Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The location was perfect although maybe a lot noisier in the summer months. The bed was comfy for a hostel and no charge for the locker to keep things safe during the day when I was out. Staff were lovely, you need to go into the hotel next door to check into the hostel. The hostel had recently had an update and everything seemed reasonably new, shower was excellent plenty of power and hot water.

    Great location and the view is to die for…. staff were friendly, welcoming and professional. Security is great and we felt very safe and secure. check in was smooth and swift. Our room was fine really, almost like mini apartments. A few minor improvements could be made but didn’t really impact our stay.

    The rooftop is amazing! The bathroom is really clean and I was alone in the dormitory (due to COVID measures I guess). Best hostel I've stayed in.
