Worth the money. A lot of amenities and breakfast! Onyl issue was there was no proper ventilation and the room smelled like dirty clothes and sweat. It was also very hot at night.

City center hostel with all the perks.
This is typical of a HI hostel but raised the bar. Though didn't partake in the free breakfast due to fasting but the place was awesome.
Friendly and helpful staff and always ready to assist.
Right at the City Center and very close to all forms of transportation.
I rate it A+++

Staff were all super friendly and helpful. Only downside was the storage as it quite narrow and doesn’t fit a large suitcase but other than that place was very good
