This is a great hotel to stay in. We stayed one night at the end of July and it wasn't long enough. Be sure to give yourself plenty of time here.

Fantastic set up. Mike the owner is always on hand to give you advice and to give you a warm welcome. The hostel atmosphere is great, and its location is perfect, with good pubs and restaurants nearby, and it's nestled in some of the best walking areas I have seen.
I was there for scuba diving, as it's close to Scuba Dive West (an excellent dive set up!) This is one of the best hostels my wife and I have ever been to, and at 16 euros a night for a dorm room, it's a great value, too. If you happen to arrive late, there's often a note by the staircase letting you know which room you're in! Try and call if you do happen to arrive late though, as it is a very popular hostel.
