Amazing hostel located just across from the train station, and a short walk to the main bus station. A breakfast is provided each morning with a range of waffles, pastries, juice, tea, coffee, fruit and cheeses. Beds are comfortable, with heaps of storage and overall has a nice vibe!

Great hostel in terms of location, breakfast, and facilities. The only downside is it was so hard to sleep because of the street noise, light coming in from outside, and the room being quite hot and stuffy even with the window open.
