I loved staying here. The...

Liked: I loved the location, the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming, and it was clean.
Disliked: There was a noisy fan outside from the bathroom for most of the single rooms with shared bathroom. For someone sensitive to noise who likes their window open this might not be the best location.

Superb

Liked: Great friendly staff. Central location, washing facilities with space to hang out outside. Comfy rooms, clean toilets and showers.
Disliked: Only downfall is the limited WiFi. 1GB for 24hours isn't a lot, when you're travelling and plan to 'make plans' whilst at your hostel for the night. Other than that, everything was great.
