Nestled in a cozy corner of the city, this hostel felt like a warm embrace that welcomed me with open arms. I could have easily lingered there for weeks, lost in the comforting ambiance that enveloped the space. But it was the staff who truly stole the show, a group of young souls brimming with energy and enthusiasm for all the world had to offer. Their open-hearted spirit was infectious, recharging my own soul and inspiring me to explore beyond the hostel's walls.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Located close to the city center, the hostel is worth the price: the rooms are small but clean and the staff is friendly and willing to help. Individual showers is a plus, and other bathroom facilities are what you would expect from a cheap youth hostel. Good experience overall.

Cheap and cheerful hostel. Good location and clean. I stayed in a private room and had my own en suite bathroom, which was handy. Everything worked as expected and the building felt safe and secure.
