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.

    Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms are not sound proof. Could hear my neighbours talking. The bed was very comfortable. Great location right near the market

    The entire experience was great. I was travelling to attend a concert and met many like-minded people who I could go with. The place is ideal for backpackers and people who wish to meet new people while travelling. Breakfast was adequate for the price and the dorms were clean. Location is ideal as it is right next to the station and easily accessible.

    Great location, nice and helpful staff, very clean, safe area, close to the main train station, good value for money. The breakfast is a buffet pretty good. Main attractions are just 10 minutes walk and the hotel has a good restaurant. We had a great sleep.

    This is one of the nicest and cleanest hostels I have been at. I took the double room which was very cozy and full of light, it had a small basin in the room which was very useful. The common toilets and showers were exceptionally clean. Great location and staff is super nice.
