Had a brilliant stay at OPPA hostel! The manager Richard was amazing and became our friend on our stay there (even played football with him and his team!) The area is great to get around the city and has loads of restaurants outside the door!

Richard is a great host! He is always helpful and makes sure that everything goes smoothly.
The room was very clean and had everything I needed.
