Gullivers House

2 Single Beds, Shared Bathroom

Classification: Hostel

Inexpensive
Clean and bright with new wood floors. Close to the station. Helpful but flaky staff-you have to buzz to get in and often they weren’t there. Not many doubles so you have to reserve. Very loud street noise.

(Note-since we stayed here, the windows have been replaced to block out the street noise)
