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.

    Lovely staff. Great location - few minutes walk to the centre , shops, tourist attractions etc. Cheap parking across the road. Clean and big rooms. Restaurant on site and room service. Food is average but handy to have a restaurant on site. Would recommend and would stay there again.

    On a bike trip. Great location, right on the main street by the river and the staff at reception couldn't have been more helpful, welcoming me and finding a safe place for my bike. Morning staff excellent too.
