What people say about our backpackers hostel
The dorms are clean and comfortable, there are plenty of amenities including a well stocked kitchen, TV room, lounge and outside seating area with BBQ. Although there are plenty of people staying at the hostel it is nice and quiet which is really welcome after some of the places I have stayed.
The hostel is really central, just 200 yards from the bus station and 200 yards from shops, cinema and restaurants.
