We loved our stay at Sams, great location and super patient staff who answered all my endless questions! Booked a couple of tours through them and they were both brilliant. Only wish we’d stayed longer!

Coffee and fruit in the morning was a nice touch. Great location on the main square.
Wasn’t as impressive as we thought it was going to be normal hostel with a nice rooftop balcony area.
