One of the nicest hostels I've stayed at! Cozy and comfortable, easy to talk to other guests as it's fairly small. Felt quite homey. When I was ill, one of the staff bought me food and even offered to take me to the pharmacy. It was such a pleasant surprise to receive that level of thoughtfulness and kindness. I'm glad I stayed here! -

Not the place for me. Place was clean, decent location, but somehow the atmosphere fell short for me - felt like I could never really relax there.
