I stayed in central backpackers for 3 nights, we stayed in an all girls dorm as it was the only room left but was still very reasonable especially for over future music festival time!

The next morning after breakfast another Dodgey looking... More

The room was a decent size, had a fridge, telly and fan (definitely needed) and clean bedding. The shower and toilets were always clean and free breakfast (cereals and toast) was provided from 7.30-9.30. Staff... More
