    I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at this hostel and it completely exceeded my expectation. It was a lot more modern and well appointed than I had first thought. Well looked after clean toilets and showers, beds and lockers all comfortable...

    i liked everything. The reception was very helpful. The lady and the man in the green shirt—I don't know his name—were there on the evening of May 15th. They were both very kind, helpful, and polite.
