Overall the property was good, the cost of a twin room with no additional amenities in the room ie tea/coffee, desk and with the additional cost of public parking on top was excessive for a backpackers.

Average, not for long term stay

Average hostel, beds were not comfortable and did not have privacy curtains. Bathroom was located within the room on the 1st floor. Located next to a construction site. Pro: Central location
