    The location was perfect for our needs, right in the hub of activity but was surprisingly quiet and peaceful in the room. Equally, there felt a good vibe with the other residents at the Backpackers during our stay

    Perfect location. Staff friendly. Hours are 7-7 pm so no help after. Rooms are very basic, but quiet and comfortable beds. Floor was not as clean as it could be and a few little bugs. Great kitchen facilities! View of the water.
