BUG review
This hostel near the Interislander ferry terminal is in a charmless building but its low prices (the cheapest hostel in town) and extensive facilties (it has a swimming pool) make it a good choice for the value concious traveller. It feels a bit disorganised and the furniture is old and mis-matched. Facilities include a fully-equipped kitchen, a TV lounge, internet access and an indoor swimming pool.
