United Kingdom and Ireland Hostel Review

Generator Hostel London:

Untuk yang berhasrat ke kota London tapi masih buntu ingin memilih penginapan, boleh lah memilih The Generator Hostel yang terletak berhampiran Russel Square Subway station.

Hostel yang bertaraf 5 bintang ini sesuai untuk pengembara yang menghadapi dilema inginkan tempat penginapan yang selesa dan sedikit sentuhan mewah tapi, mempunyai sekatan bajet tertentu.

Harga sekitar RM80 jika membuat tempahan lebih awal.

Katil yang sangat selesa, dilengkapi dengan ‘plug point’ individual.

Bar juga disediakan untuk anak muda yang ingin berhibur.

Antara fasiliti lain ialah:

1) locker
2) breakfast
4) cafe
5) vending machine

Dan sebagainya.

Untuk pengetahuan semua, The Generator Hostel merupakan rangkaian hostel 5 bintang di Eropah.

New Castle Hostel review:

Property name: Albatross Backpacker Inn

Toilet: too classic and i don’t really like it. Clean as it is.
