The staff were very nice. Great location. It was good value for money. Thank God they gave me a ground floor room because my luggage was too much for the stairs. Otherwise I would have left immediately. The experience taught me to be very careful to select hotels with working elevators. Their building has no elevator.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.
