As advertised, it was a really friendly/homey hostel... could really use better mattresses though. Or at least that's the case with the one I was sleeping on!

This hostel has the relaxed feel of being a guest in a very chilled out person's home. The rooms, lounge and kitchen are bright, clean and well decorated; the staff are very friendly and helpful; and the location is ideal! The only downside (no place is perfect) is the showers need some maintenance to bring them up to the standard of the rest of the hostel. I ended up staying 1 week longer than I booked, and would definitely stay again!This hostel has the relaxed feel of being a guest in a very chilled out person's home.

The best hostel I ever stayed in. Only two rooms with 8 beds. You will get into contact with every visitor really fast and probably experience a great time cooking, drinking and talking together. The cleanliness is not so superior though. But that was tolerable. Unfortunately there were no lockers.The best hostel I ever stayed in. Only two rooms with 8 beds.

Really small hostel with family atmosphere. Facilities are a little poor but maybe better after redecoration.

A very friendly homely little hostel. Ideal if you're travelling alone, it's very easy to meet new people. Great area, and plenty to keep you entertained in the area (including plenty of films to stay in and watch on the big screen if you feel like it!)A very friendly homely little hostel.

very close to bus station. i only tried one of the two showers but the water pressure was literally zero. also, the place was overbooked on the second night i was there and an extra bed was placed where there wasn't really room for one. decent breakfast and kitchen.very close to bus station. i only tried one of the two showers but the water pressure was literally zero. also, the place was overbooked on the second night i was there and an extra bed was placed where there wasn't really room for one. decent breakfast and kitchen....Close Read Owner Comments
