I have just this weekend stayed at the Riverside backpackers with a group of friends for a weekend away and it was a really lovely place to stay.

We had organized everything then were told by this hostel that the rates had more than doubled. They tried to make all kinds of really embarrassing, lame excuses but we have an email with... More
