*Information about Hostel Upgrade* As we are continuously trying to improve our lovely hostel, we will be starting work to re-paint the exterior of our building from 20th November onward, towards christmas. This work will involve an exterior scaffold around the building and sanding and cleaning preparation. Work will start from 8.30am each morning but no earlier. We apologise for any disruption this may cause guests though any disruption should be very minimal if at all. Exciting changes :-)
