The location was absolutely perfect, the staff were helpful & friendly. They even kept our bags after checkout, at no cost, so we could continue sight seeing before departure. The bathrooms were always very clean, stocked up with towels and hot water. The rooms were exactly like in the pictures, tiny but perfectly for staying in the city. Thanks so much!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.
