BUG Review
Besides its great name, this hostel is a great choice for several reasons. It is a small, smartly decorated hostel with great atmosphere and facilities. The common areas and dorms are sleek and clean, with new, comfortable mattresses and beds made up with nice duvets and bedside lights. The fully-equipped kitchen is spacious and the bathrooms are new and spotless. Double rooms are exceptionally well appointed. They offer laundry facilities, free use of bicycles, free airport pickup and unlimited free internet (including Wi-Fi access). There is a laid-back, convivial atmosphere here, and the owner is friendly and interesting.
