A fairly long bus ride takes you near this place, then you have a good walk down a somewhat isolated road (past a military camp) to get there. I'm not known for being skittish, but the walk back at night alone made me very nervous. Only every second street light is turned on and I was accosted by lone men several times, and carloads of off-duty soliders kept cruising by with all but the driver staring at me. Hard.The facilities are standard and the place does fill with school-groups. If you are travelling with friends I don't think this place would be too bad, but remember to add the price of transit to whatever you end up paying here.

this was one of the best hostels that i ever stayed in- big bar with cheap beer, big games room with table tennis, video games, and drink dispenser, large tv room, internet access and decent breakfast. nice clean rooms with comfortable beds and clean showersits not located in the centre but its a short busride away, the only drawback was that this hostel was packed with young french students and when we were there (march 03) there wasn't many other backpackersi'd definetly recommend staying here
