| The hostel was clean and well laid out and would recommend it. However the staff looked overworked and stressed and did not give a welcomming atmosphere to the guests. I ordered breakfast and it was a waste of money and not prepared in time. | ||

| Spacious bunk bed rooms, power points just outside the bedroom doors, showers a little small across the shoulders. Hot hot water! (great!) Suits the mainly hiking clientele. Good staff. | ||
