Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Good hostel which is maintained clean. Staff are friendly and very helpful with information. The kitchen is very big and has all you need though a bit worn out. They'll store your luggage for $2 a day.
Negative: Make sure you keep receipts or proof of payment as you might be asked to pay twice for things otherwise. The location is a bit further out of town so a bit of a walk.
Summary: Good stay
