I have just left the hostel, after a couple of nights there. I was pleasantly surprised by the place, good price, great location, great free bbq on friday night Only drawback was that there were only 2 commong bathrooms for those that did not have one in suite, and they are in courtyard, so a bit of a trek if... more

Bathroom was small, but backpacking, this is what you have to expect and had everything you needed. Breakfast was included and atmosphere was great. They take the entire hostel out most nights, and... more
