There’s an equal mix of shared and private rooms. The dorms each have their own country theme! Choose a bunk and enjoy a blackout curtain, reading light and plug socket. We love the amount of space and handy storage under the beds.

It’s the little things that count. In the common lounge you can enjoy a bit of TV or enjoy a free tea/coffee.
