Jude is kind, caring and generous. I also really felt at home there and it was easy to connect with the other visitors, sitting outside after meal drinking beers.

The staff were very kind and welcoming. The tea on arrival was lovely. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. The hostel was decorated so beautifully. And the best part was the sweetest dog!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
