"Outstanding hostel, but do not forget your flip flops."

9.0

Excellent hostel vibes, it has everything you might need, big shared spaces, enough storage space for everyone, confy beds, and an outstanding drying room. The hostel is cleaned thoroughly daily. 20 mins away from the pub. My stay was perfect. Extra points to the friendly and helpful staff.

The shower's floor is made of stainless steel. On the one hand, this is top-shelf for hygiene reasons; on the other hand, it is extremely slippery when wet and soapy. Showers could do with an extra rubber mat, as the provided one is too small and does not cover the whole floor.

Really enjoyed the separate lounge area - good to play family games and have quiet place to read. Amazing location. We walked down the beautiful path along the road for 15 min to get to pub for dinner one night.

L'accueil de Mike, ses conseils, les équipements et l'organisation de la cuisine commune. Le pod est relativement spacieux et agréable.

Le matelas était un peu souple à mon goût, sinon rien à signaler

"For nature lovers :)"

The location is spectacular and the staff great. Highly recommended especially to nature lovers!

Since the bathrooms are shared, it could be useful to have some sanitising sprays in the toilets.
