Nadchlo mě, jak neničíte staré hodnoty, ale naopak dáváte peníze na rekonstrukci. Líbila se mi okna se zavíratelnými dřevěnými okenicemi a příjemné bylo, že jsem si mohla sama přitopit, jak jsem potřebovala.

Jelikož jsem cizinec, uvítala bych televizi na pokoji, abych mohla v klidu zdokonalovat svoji angličtinu. A kdyby byla na pokoji i mikrovlnka, pak by to byl úplný luxus. (Vím, že ve společné kuchyňce je možnost vařit, což je taky skvělé.)

Lovely staff, and nice rooms right in the centre of town. Far comfier bed than other backpackers I've stayed at.

Was staying on the top bunk in a shared room, no PowerPoints at bed level.
