Comfy bed, really cute kitchen and chill area, perfect location and lots of utensils and supplies.

Beds (especially top bunks) were super shaky and squeaky and not mounted against the wall. Only one fridge

"Avoid at all cost, not worth it."

Location is handy

We booked two beds in a 6 bed dorm. But we were put in a 7 bed dorm without any notice. The owner made a big fuss when we complained. Another traveller had the same issue. False advertising. Avoid this hostel.

Petit hostel dans une maison légèrement en hauteur. L'intérieur est cosy et facilite les rencontres, c'est propre et calme. J'ai passé un très bon séjour !

Lage und das Gebäude, in einem normalen Haus.

Die Heizung im Zimmer funktionierte nicht und es war sehr Kalt.
