pretty out of the way, cheap if youre looking for a place to crash for the night. we stayed the night before a flight - wouldnt recommend for an extended stay.

The hostel is VERY far away from the city centre. Also, a majority of the people live there long term so it is a hard environment to meet others.

Really near to the city centre and really cheap but it was so cold, could really do with some kind of heating in the rooms and T.V lounge!!

A bit far from the city center but a cozy place in general.

This hostel is only a 20 min walk to the center and is very inexpensive. It is a good place to stay long term but I personally wouldn´t recommend it short trerm, I didn´t like the way every window was open 24/7 as it was far to cold, I have been travelling for 4 months and have never come across a hostel with so many rules and threats to throw out your belongings if you are not tidy or don´t have your things labelled correctly.

I loved this place!! The long walk into town (15 minutes at least) was a little icky, but that seems to be my only complaint. Great rooms, great company, will recommend!

I am used to hostels that have lots of "character." While it was very clean, quiet, and I felt secure it was pretty sterile. There are a lot of long term residents there that take away from having a travel experience. I may return but probably not.
