The directions to get to the hostel are very unclear and we had to drive around for almost two hours before locating the hostel! When we arrived the kitchen was in the most disgusting state and I felt like cancelling my stay! If you have heavy bags from travelling beware as there are steep steps up to the rooms.

Very small sign in the front of hostel - it was small and hidden behind the tree leafs - difficult to find it for the first time. Wrong map location on your website.

To make the stay @ the hostel perfect they might think about offering more cutlery in the community kitchen. ;-) However, it is a lovely hostel and i would stay there again...

Nice building, and adequate location, although there was no locker space.

What a charming hostel! Spacious and clean. Helpful staff. A bit of a bus ride but still walkable from the city center if you miss the last bus of the evening. Good bargain for the price. It helps when the roommates are considerate as was my good fortune. Made a couple of friends among them which is the great part about hostelling.

the hostel is a good place to crash, but it\'s a good 20 minute walk away from the city centre.

It was worth the money. Although the directions were a bit confusing, I made it safely and the stay was pleasant. I would go to it again but it is not the most conveneient stay

The hostel was in a good location, nice big rooms. The only bad review I have about this hostel is that the showers for freezing!
