Amazing hostel! It's a few hundred meters from the main shopping street and the center of the city so really easy to navigate to the main spots. Really safe and cozy place. The staff were so friendly and kind, Amy gave us really good recommendations for the local pubs and food places as well!! The complimentary breakfast was delicious and afternoon tea helped to get thru the day :D Thanks xoxo
