Good hostel in an excellent location. It has a bar attached which is handy for food and drinks. The staff were friendly and helpful when we asked to securely store our bikes. It was a 6 bunkbed room, which was spacious, with a tiny safe for each bed. It is semi-private the bed as it has a hard cover. However, it is not full blackout to sleep.
