Great hosts and plenty of events that make it easy to meet other travellers. I felt very safe throughout my stay and met lots of friendly people. The hostel is also conveniently located close to restaurants, bars, and bus stops.

Room was ok and showers/toilets nearby which were cleaned regularly. Forgot my padlock but can be borrowed from reception for a fully refundable fee once returned.
