Really nice place, the owner had a cute dog and the place was pretty homey. The sheets where disposable so we felt really clean while we where sleeping. The only thing i didn't like was the smell there it was awful, i dont know how to describe it but it was baad.

This hostel was the worst hostel I've stayed in. The staff was very rude. There was no lockers and people's staff was everywhere on the floor. The room was small and smelled bad. The beds were shaking. The hostel is located near busy rail road and it was noisy. There is no kitchen. If you travel by car, its very difficult to find a parking spod. Keep in mind, if come after 22:30 or check out after 10:30 you will have to pay extra fee. We would definitely NOT recommend this hostel.

The problem here was that you arrived after midnight without contacting us in advance. The reception closes at 10:30pm, we ask people to let us know it they're arriving late so we can leave a room card for them to collect. All this information is on the website. A few other points, we do have a kitchen, rooms have double glazed windows and air conditionining so should be very quiet (if the windows are closed), there's no charge for a late arrival. Finally, you only stayed for 7 hours and we feel that your comments aren't a fair reflection of the hostel.

This hostel is close to train station. The facilities in kitchen is great, and they have outside enough space for dining. I stay in 9 beds mix room, and the room size is too crowded for 9 people.

Good to hear that you liked the kitchen and terrace. There should be plenty of space for 9 people in the large dorms but we have 6 bed and 4 bed dorms also for people that don't want to share with too many people.

Hostel was clean and quiet. But the bad thing was that the guy who ran the front desk was never there. We wanted to get towels for two days but he was never around. He also wasn't around when two of my friends wanted to check out - kind of annoying. He also scolded us for making the room messy, wasn't the friendliest.
