Reviews from happy backpackers

I lived and worked from this great hostel for over two years!! When you're there five minutes it’s already your home away from home you become part of a family. This place creates great memories and you will meet travel friends for life!
It's hands down one of the best hostels i've ever stayed at! Unbelievable atmosphere, well run and within days it will start to feel like home. There's always a friendly face in the common area no matter the time of day.
