With hundreds of beds, this mammoth hostel is handily central. While it can feel over-businesslike, and is often booked out by rowdy groups, it has OK facilities, including en-suite dorms with lockers, a compact kitchen, a mediocre breakfast, a bar, a games room and a laundry. Some rooms have been modernised; other parts feel a bit dated.
Aimed at groups, the 'suites' section is attractively modern, with its own little garden and lounge area.
