Fabulous

Globe Backpackers exceeded my expectations. One of the cheapest accommodations I found, yet my double room was a very nice size and I had a private shower room. Linen and towels were provided, and my room was very well-kept. All of the staff I interacted with were very friendly and welcoming, and I was given a well-conducted tour upon my arrival. The only negatives were the cleanliness and stock of the shared bathrooms, and the lack of sound-proofing between rooms, but these were minor issues.
