Tea & coffee, kitchen ware and a fridge also available in the room. 👍👍👌👌😊😊NerelleSolo traveler

NicolleSolo traveler - Avg. price/night: $50.987.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 334 reviewsStay Hostel was at a great location and parking on-site was provided too. The service was great - we were also offered a private room to upgrade our booking for a reasonable price, which we didn't hesitate to say yes to. Facilities and rooms were clean, reliable WiFi connection and it wasn't hard to find to make our way around nearby shops & cafes during our stay.JecelGroup
