4 out of 5

Good position good facilities plus breakfast.

Pros: The position in the centre of town. Secure entry to hostel and to rooms. Self help continental breakfast included.
Location: There is a scenic railway with choice of route (if you can afford it), a Chinese garden, interesting architecture and good shopping.
Welcoming staff and well organised. There is a bar and pool tables below the hostel. Free pool for guests. Modern hostel with dorm rooms and a seperate toilet/shower block. A help yourself breakfast as long as you are up between 7:30am and 9:00am. A comfortable lounge/TV room and kitchen/dining all in one. It is in a great position but also quiet at night.
