The staff. Very pleasant, personable and helpful. The bed was super comfy. Washrooms clean. Hot water plentiful. Right beside the train station. Didn't use the kitchen at all but looked very well equipped. Great system for storing your food. Used the roof patio a nice chill spot. Thank you for a wonderful stay

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.
