Rachel Thompson

14 September 2009 Rachel would recommend this property

Liked: Nice place, room was lovely but bed was mega squeaky. Very homey and friendly place, staff were nice and kitchen was very well equipped. Would have appreciated instant coffee for us philistines who don't know how to make filter coffee!! Location is a very cool area but a bit of a trek from the station, the park nearby is gorgeous and if the weather's nice is full of entertaining people!

Rachel Goldthorpe

11 September 2009 Rachel would recommend this property

Liked: Good clean tidy hostel. Quiet with good chill out areas. Bout 15 min walk into town which can be annoying, we had to walk around with our bags on the last day as it wasn't worth going back to the hostel to get them. No breakfast either so prepare for that but good full kitchen for cooking. Yummy thai takeaways just opposite the hostel.
