Excellent”

Staff is amazing. Location superb. Very clean. Loved the well-equipped kitchen where you can make your own food. Breakfast with bottomless instant coffee, eggs you do yourself any way you like them, toaster and plenty brown bread. Note no local, personal power outlets or bed lamps in the dorm, only shared plugs and adaptors. No privacy curtain. Only 2 showers but they're kept spotless. Only one toilet for the men's but also very clean. Can safely park your bicycle or scooter.
