Cheap, cheerfull and handy for town. The kitchen is pretty small and the dinning area lounge is not somewhere you'd spend a lot of time. On the first night all the tables were in use so nowhere to sit down and look at the maps/books. It felt fairly tired compared to some of the hostels i've stated at in the... More

The hostel is near the rail station and main street (Tesco express, banks, shops, tourist info centre). The room was too spacy but clean. There is no lockers in the room. The restroom in ground floor has 2 showers booths without door (only curtain) and one toilet. Another restroom is bigger and combine toilet and shower in one room (... More

I wasn't expecting much for the price, but it turns out that this is not a bad place at all. The rooms are clean and comfortable equipped with tv and a decent bathroom. There is no breakfast or dinner here, but there is a kitchen to make you're own stuff. I didn't bother, as it was the last night of... More

Stayed there with my friend for two nights in 6-bed male dorm. The location is very good - stores are nearby, rail and bus station is at 10-min walking distance. The place was clean. Shower room ok, hot water available. Extra things like towel, toothbrush etc. are available for a small fee. Only the kitchen and eating/resting room were rather... More
