I ended up not staying in the hostel, but the manager was very friendly and welcoming and gave me and my friends tour of the facilities, which were clean and very well maintained. The rooms and the beds are spacious. The living room and the garden are beautiful spaces. Good value for money.

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.
