A traditional hostel experience. Welcoming ,kind and helpful new owners,staff and other people staying there long term. Great company, quiet,comfortable bed,restful sleep. Clean and tidy. Tourist information and help,Pool table, games,T.V,large communal lounge area and separate large kitchen and dining area., small veranda to sit ,smoke and watch the world go by. Great location.
The hostel has recently changed hands and the new owners have plans to re vamp the hostel. At the moment it is tired and dated looking and needs some fresh light coloured paint and some work in the bathroom and kitchen. ...but for me these things are not so important. The location,space,cleanliness kindness and company made my stay very special.
