Had a lovely stay in budget. The staff was friendly and enthusiastic and very helpful with directions and places to dine etc... The place is located not far from the castles and other attractions so we just walk everywhere during our stay. The facilities are very good and clean.

I spend only 1 night with my daugther and it was very expensive (about 95 pounds for 1 night)

Clean hostel! The women's bathroom is a little small for the number of women, but the showers are hot...and that is always a bonus. The staff is great and will help you find anything in the area. The location is prime which makes for a noisy night of bar-hoppers right out the window...be sure to wear ear-plugs!

Everyone on the staff was extremely helpful and couldn't have been more friendly. The set-up of the rooms was great and through tours and pub crawls led by the hostel staff it was very easy to meet other travelers staying at the hostel. One of the best hostels I've stayed in.

I had a fantastic couple of nights at Budget Backpackers! The staff were friendly, they ran free walking tours and pub crawls and the overall atmosphere of the hostel was awesome. Within walking distance to everything you will need or want to see and is a great place to meet friendly likeminded travellers. I'm definitely going back and I would recommend Budget Backpackers to anyone!!
