We had a great stay, bed and room were very comfortable. Excellent facilities, including kitchen, dining room and activities room. Surprisingly quiet! With free tea and coffee which was a lovely bonus. Superb staff, Indu was very helpful and friendly and on our last day, offered us tea and coffee even after check out. The hostel is located within walking distance to centre, train station and major attractions. Lots of food places nearby too. We will definitely stay again. Thank you for a lovely stay!
