elegí este alojamiento porque lo veía céntrico, sin embargo a la hora de cargar la maleta luego que los tours te dejan en la plaza, se siente la caminata en subida. Los chicos de recepción son bastante amables! y me gustó mucho que uno pueda servirse agua 24/7 de la cocina. la terraza fue lo que más me gustó ya que tienen una vista increíble desde ahí. lamentablemente como tenía muchos tours, no pude unirme a las actividades que hacían. perfecto si buscas un espacio sociable sin ser ruidoso.

really good hostel! easy to meet people on the terrace or in the dining room. didn’t see many events on during my time there tho! will say it’s so so so cold at night! the blankets they provide are relatively thin so i had to ask for an extra one and so many other people had asked so there were none! as well as the awkward shaped kitchen with a tap that is hellbent on getting water all over you, the only downsides to an otherwise great stay.
