Stay was okay. Nothing spectacular. Basic but it’s what you’d expect for the price. The shared communal kitchen area was nice, clean and had plenty of facilities for you to use and communal breakfast options also.

My stay was saved by interaction with other travellers. The kitchen facilities were fine but the property as a whole was tired. I had what I needed but it is need of just a little bit of effort from the (new?) owners.

Almost cheap and almost cheerful, not the worst place I’ve stayed, but does what it says on the tin, and does it well! Nicely situated in the area, and just what you need for a backpacking stopover wash and brush-up.

This is a basic budget friendly but safety conscious hostel. Kitchen access at the moment is limited but the owners were really good at helping us out!

The stay was exactly what I needed, a good night's sleep in a solid hostel. It was offseason when I went, so not too rowdy, but I can imagine it's a great place for a party during the season. The kitchen is massive and has tons of stuff to cook your own meal - the lounge is connected so a good place to drink with some mates. The owner is super nice as well! I would definitely stay here again if I ever got the opportunity. Thanks team!

They had overbooked the rooms somthere was a bit of panic at first. Room was adequate for what we paid but wouldn’t do any harm to have a proper clean, especially a bit of vacuuming. Free breakfast was a surprise and a nice bonus but could do with someone checking the items as bread was mouldy and butter looked horrible. But there was plenty extra so I just opened a new one. I know some would say you get what you pay for but I’ve stayed in plenty of hostels and paid less and it’s been cleaner. Does for a couple of nights if you’re not that fussy and just looking for somewhere dry.

It has a good relation cost-comfort. All areas seemed pretty clean, nice kitchen with utensils to use. To improve, maybe bigger beds as they are a little small for two persons. The room is turned to the main street, and you may wake up in the middle of the night with road traffic noise, specially in the summer, when you leave your window open.

It's decent for a hostel. Our room was not the double we had reserved, but James offered a refund and to connect us with a local B & B but we decided to stay at the hostel. They offer self serve breakfast cereals in the kitchen, the shower was hot, the WiFi worked and the sheets were clean.
