Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    The only good thing about this hotel was the staff, when I went back up to the front desk she was understanding and helpful when I let her know that my room was awful and I couldn't stay there for the safety of myself and daughter. She immediately refunded me and apologized.

    The room was very clean, and the bed was comfortable (although the pillows were weirdly shaped). Great location, with easy access, right on the route. Safe parking, with easy access.
