    After an initial struggle up the steps, I found the hostel to be in an excellent location. The dorm rooms are very clean. The price is unbeatable. The manager was amazing. He lent me his kettle so that I could make an early morning drink before...

    The YMCA is a beautiful building the photos don’t do it justice. If you like period buildings and want to feel like you’ve stepped back in time this is the place for you. The staff are very welcoming, the location is fantastic for exploring...
