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.

Central location and very cheap. Has a fridge, microwave, small oven and cooking plates. Nice shower. Gets cleaned daily. Friendly guests during my stay. Prompt response from hostel staff when I called or messaged them via the app. Comfortable bed. A pretty decent hostel experience.
