Arrived to a warm welcome. Couldn't believe how many common rooms and the quality of facilities. Generally an awesome hostel will definitely be goin back. More

Immaculately clean! And it is really under the castle. I enjoyed my full course breakfast of cereal, peanut butter and rasberry sandwhich, and apple juice! You have other choices of course. More
