A lot of long stay people are here. They are party people so you've got to be in to that, but it's great to make some new friends quickly!

Whilst we were there we had our window open and some one threw a foul smelling liquid from an upstairs window. This liquid splashed all over the roof out side our window and in through our window, which wasnt pleasant

The WORST WORST backpackers I have ever stayed in!!! If you want to get a nights sleep forget about staying here!! The blaring music and very annoying loud occupants will make sure you remember your stay for all the wrong reasons!!!!

I thought it was generally ok, and would probably stay again, but there was a cooked cockroach on one of our pancakes, and lacking facilities in the kitchen. The staff could have been more friendly.
