.... But it was quiet - important for a young family - and once again, the staff are great; friendly and helpful. However, the hostel is in dire need of serious money being spent on it, but for all that, we enjoyed our stay here! We even saw a snake, albeit a very small one!! More

I was staying some couple of nights at this hostels and the last night I got attacked by bed bugs. The staff was friendly, but only stay at this place if you want bed bugs. More
