In my life I have the good fortune to do a fair bit of travelling and I have the pleasure of staying at hostels all over the world. However, out of all these places, this is by far my favourite - it’s got the vibes, I always meet such interesting people every time I stay here plus all of the staff are personable and super friendly. I really cannot rate this place highly enough.
