    clean rooms
    charming communal area
    inadequate bathroom access
    hygiene issues
    limited privacy

    The welcoming atmosphere made for a pleasant stay, with clean rooms and a charming communal area featuring unique decor. Strong coffee paired nicely with make-your-own pancakes each morning. However, the shared bathroom setup proved inadequate for the number of guests, causing inconvenience during peak hours. Additionally, the lack of thorough cleanliness in the bedding raised concerns about hygiene.

    welcoming atmosphere

    Do recommend for a day tour

    Cozy hostel, clean dormitory, with a welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to meet other travelers while enjoying the free breakfast of tasty pancakes and taking advantage of the shared kitchen for some late-night snacks as well as the convenient location near public transportation for exploring nearby sites.

    The staff was friendly but not especially helpful.

    I loved the cozy vibe of the place. The lounge area had guitars and a piano to play, which was super fun. the yard with a swing was such a nice touch! Talking with other travelers over homemade pancakes was a highlight.

    communal vibe
    friendly staff
    cramped facilities

    Had a great time with friends! We explored nearby hiking trails and enjoyed some live music nights. The staff was friendly and welcoming. There’s a good communal vibe, making it easy to meet others. Just a heads up, shared facilities can get busy, so be prepared for that.

    One downside was that the toilet facilities were a bit cramped for the number of guests, especially in the mornings.

    Charming Stay for Budget Travelers

    I had a delightful stay in a 6-bed mixed dormitory. The friendly staff made sure everything was clean, and I loved starting my day with the delicious pancake breakfast. Great atmosphere to meet travelers. Just remember to plan your day as the hostel is closed from 10 am to 4:30 pm!
