    “Great stay but noisy”

    I stayed with 3 foreigners in 4 bed all-female dormitory. All in all was good. However, since it is located at the pub area, it can be noisy at night. You need to walk slowly as the floor will make a sound since it is an old building. Everything else is good. Recommended for backpackers but not suitable for family trip.
