"This hostel comes very close to being the best I've ever stayed in. The staff were simply fantastic, helpful, friendly, talkative.. The place was very clean, and even has a cleaner who, despite my protests to do it myself, kept cleaning up after me at breakfast.

There was a good lounge area, perfect for meeting people, non stop TV with a good selection of films to watch on a rainy day, and free internet. The location was good too, with the bus station two minutes walk away."
