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.
The seafront location. The friendly atmosphere. The comfortable mattress. The chatty manager, Arthur. It's rather like an old style youth hostel, with the friendly vibe and the alcohol ban, but without the other YHA restrictions.
Great to have secure parking, especially as travelling alone. I didn't mind paying for assigned car park, as it felt safer than on the street. Great location and friendly staff, very helpful. It was very quiet for being placed near CBD. Enjoyed my stay.
Breakfast - good selection available plus hot drink variety
Room - upgraded, clean with comfortable bed, en suite.
Reception - friendly warm reception with a tour of the facilities.
As a backpacker’s hostel, excellent value for money.
It’s a great location right by the seafront and centre of town. There’s cheap all day parking at the end of the street. The lady at the front desk was lovely.
Great location, staff excellent, room was a little small but bed comfy and not too noisy. Lovely balcony to watch the sunset and have a drink. The shower wasn’t great and there was no kitchen sink to wash dishes so we did them in the bathroom. We are a young couple so had a fun time regardless, the price is great for the location, and the bed was comfy. The staff gave us the same room for an extra night as I’d messed up the booking, it’s a great place to stay if you don’t mind budget and not a fancy pants place.
