Clean bathrooms, clean rooms, free dinner that was actually pretty good! I was so happy with this hostel. The staff were helpful, the facilities were obviously cleaned daily, the location was great as it is just around the corner from Gilligan's. And FREE DINNER! All for an extremely reasonable price. I wouldn't have stayed anywhere else!

Stayed in a 4 dorm room which had air con and a fan. Unfortunately the wifi wasn't working during my stay which was a shame but they have computers at reception you can use for 20mins or so! Kitch was a bit odd, outside and no stove, just a bbq thing! Bar right next door so when there is live music you won't get to sleep for a while! Hostel was clean and i liked the fact there was a fridge and table and chairs in the room. Clayton on the desk was very helpful and friendly :)
