The friendliness of the staff and the quick response to assist as booking.com had a glitch and booked me a family room and they understood when I explained I didn't book a family room and fixed it quick. Amanda and Pretty are wonderful hosts and kind.

No breakfast was offered for my package, so it was not a big deal, since it was self catering. Everything was just exceptional.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
