Hatte ein Privat Zimmer mit eigenem Bad und es fühlte sich fast wie zu Hause an. Vorallem wenn man schon länger unterwegs ist. Sehr freundliches Personal, sehr hilfsbereit mit viel Geduld.

Leider gibt es Gäste, die mitten in der Nacht ihre Haare föhnen müssen. Dafür kann das Hostel jedoch nichts.

"Thanks for the good vibes ✨💜"

8.0

At first, I had booked for 4 nights, but I ended up extending my stay for one more. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped, and the showers were always clean and comfortable. I slept really well every single night. The pool was a great bonus, perfect after a long walk or a day at the beach. The staff are nice and funny. The location is also convenient if you arrive by bus, only a 10 minutes walk from the bus stop. It takes around 30 minutes to get to the beach, but it’s a lovely walk along the coastal track Thanks for the good vibes! See you! 💜✨

The only thing I could mention is about the kitchen taps 😅 I understand it’s for saving water, but doing the dishes becomes a challenge in itself 😂

老板很友善、热情,帮忙回答了附近景点的问题,留言说可能要late check-in也很快回复了。整体布置得很温馨、很家居,厨房很漂亮,早餐很免费提供pancake,很好吃!

隔音不好,能听到外面人的聊天说话声...

Anzukommen, sehr herzlich aufgenommen zu werden, jeder spricht mit jedem, wenn man denn möchte, sehr gemischte Gäste, viele, die länger bleiben, um zu arbeiten, alle Altersgruppen. Betten gut, die Küche ist super ausgestattet und organisiert!

Der Hinterhof könnteverschönert werden mit Lichtgirlanden und z.B. einer Tischtennisplatte...nur eine Idee. Und die Polstermöbel auf der Veranda und im Wohnzimmer könnten ein upcycling vertragen. Mich hat es nicht weiter gestört, weil die Kontakte so nett waren. Wer keinen Strassenlärm erträgt, für den ist es nicht das richtige, Hostel liegt direkt an einer grossen Kreuzung.
