Stayed just the one night. The Hostel Manager was extremely hospitable and offered free jam and toast in the morning and free soup in the evening. Would recommend this hostel.

Mr.Duke manager of this hostel is a nice guy.

Room walls are very thin so other guests noises are very intrusive. Lack of consideration from other guests was an issue for me, especially after midnight, but this goes with the 'backpack territory' so maybe it would not be an issue for most other people.

Owner Comment (Show)
We are very sorry that there were noises from other guests. We are doing our best to keep it quite, especially after midnight and we expect every guest to respect others. Unfortunately this time there was someone who didn't do it and we have apologised to the guest. Usually the guests respect other guests so luckily other reviews on Hostelworld are much better.

The Duke was lovely, cleanliness an colourfulness abound. Our host Dory was more than welcome to not only make our stay comfortable, but to also help us organise our trip as it progressed. Would recommend it as a stop to anyone planning to head down the south-west coast afterwards. =)
