The location was fantastic and the Carpark by the cathedral was perfect. 5 minutes walk, cheap and safe. The room was welcoming and generous in comfort and extra details. (Prosecco!) close to everything.

Great location everything I wanted to do was walkable. Staff are extremely friendly and approachable and also very helpful. The free hostel breakfast is definitely one of the best hostel breakfasts I’ve ever encountered. It’s also a very social hostel with activities on most nights that are easy to access and super fun, as a solo traveller this was awesome! The rooms are spacious with secure crates to keep your stuff + privacy curtains were appreciated. Bathrooms are clean and numerous.
