Very clean and modern hostel. Great location near shops, restaurants and a bus stop for the bus to Snowdon Summit. It was a quiet hostel which I am sure some travelers would love. However, I prefer a bit more of a social vibe.

Had a great time here. Facilities were clean, location was convenient. No lockers though, I had to store my things under my bed.
