Guest Reviews

Smith (3/5): - Maybe because it was winter it was a bit quiet. But walking down the stairs was a bit scary.
Mancia (10/5): -
Mancia (10/5): enjoyed the stay and value for money - Thanks Lyn we all enjoy our stay and will definitely come back and recommend to friends all is well and good
PanoHomes (4/5): -
Paul (8/5): - Quite and local to rugby ground
NaN (6/5): -
MUCH23 (9/5): -
Lourdes Sofía (6/5): - La habitación era amplia y bastante silenciosa por la noche. Los baños estaban limpios y la ducha era caliente. La cocina también estaba ordenada y limpia. Es verdad que para lo que pagas esperas una mejor calidad del lugar. No hay recepcionista casi nunca y las puertas externas no tienen seguridad,por lo que sientes que cualquier persona puede entrar. Nuestra habitación al estar pegada a la cocina y a la sala de estar,podías escuchar a todo el mundo cocinar y hablar. Pagar 6 dolares por la lavadora y dos o más por una secadora que no funciona correctamente,me parece un poco excesivo.
Lisa Aurelia (7/5): Okay - - schön in der natur - küchenausstattung okay - erwas kalt draußen - bettdecken nicht soo gemütlich - für das was geboten war, hätte es etwas günstiger sein dürfen
Marc (8/5): - Lovely and quiet , free parking . Lovely nature outside.. Clean.
Aaron.H (9/5): -
Anna (8/5): Perfect for a base when passing through. Lovely location and great kitchen facilities. - It was accessible to town. We were simply there for a night passing through and it suited our needs. I liked that other travellers respected quiet times.
Ralf (7/5): - I have a spacious room for my family, the shower and toilet is also clean which is a great plus. I would have thought that towel is included, but I don't expect too much from a backpacker so it wasn't a bad thing
Philippe (8/5): - Le personnel est remarquable par sa gentillesse, disponibilité, courtoisie. Ils donne beaucoup de charme à cet endroit où l'on se sent vraiment accueilli Tout est proposé et bien entretenu. Location de vélos de bonne qualité à petit prix Les chambres sont grandes. Chambre no 5, la literie est vraiment très inconfortable. Dommage. La chambres est toute simple, lits sans rideaux, pas d'éclairage individuel seulement un plafonnier et pas d'espace de rangement ou étagères. Heureusement la taille compense.

Lynn (10/5): -
Michael (2/5): - Very bush clad Couldn't find it. Neighbors had to direct me the way. No sign of coming from the west. Very hidden and dark and smelly. Beds were the most uncomfortable I've ever slept in. Have a bad back now it was so bad. No care about appearance
Nathan (10/5): -
whiting (10/5): - Comfy bed no hassles All goods
Hooper (7/5): I enjoyed it -
Sarah (9/5): thanks, great stay - Great garden, lots of trees, a little river with eels. I love it !
Paulin (1/5): RUN AWAY ! - DON'T BOOK THIS PLACE !! The girl (boss) wasn't friendly and it is very expensive for the services and quality they offer. A refuge in the mountains is better and cheaper... run away.
Luke (8/5): - Brilliant helpful staffs to help you get you out and about and was on in the local area
Vivien (7/5): Overall, it’s worth the price. - Location is ok. The room a little bit damp.
RenellOlivier (6/5): -
Gaia (5/5): -
nadege (5/5): - hôtel très bien situé
Capdevielle (7/5): -
Gabriela (10/5): -
Olga (8/5): Buena relación calidad-precio - La amabilidad de la señora de recepción y lo económico
Eastwood (7/5): I'll be back to stay again. It served my purpose. - Cold.shower
Tasha (2/5): -
Helmke (10/5): - Super clean and very friendly personal.
JESSE (9/5): -
Stine Åkesson (6/5): -
hutchinson (6/5): Satisfied, friendly vibes, decent kitchen and lounge, not the most modern and flash but all good - The lady was lovely, it was cheaper than the alternatives at the time of booking and had a decent kitchen The water tastes like a rain tank, the mattress bases are old woven springs and this leads the beds to sag significantly (I’m a broad shouldered man, and my friend was very aware of the limited space in the bottom bunk)
Selina (10/5): Serene tranquility & safe…..excellent value for money - A quiet retreat 20 min walk from the centre of town. Great gardens! Relaxed & quiet atmosphere. Clean cooking facilities Lack of laundry facilities
Roslyn (8/5): Great place, despite difficult circumstances due to storm damage, the owner was very good. - A very beautiful place, such a lovely garden
Andreas (9/5): - Nette Herbergsmutter, nette Umgebung , sehr günstig und alles da was gebraucht wird. WiFi schnell, gründliche Prüfung von Pass usw. (Sonst eher sehr selten) Betten war lausig, der Federrost war völlig durch und man hing wie in einer Hängematte
Ruth (3/5): Würde ich nicht nochmal buchen. - Die Küche war gut eingerichtet. Es gab eine Veranda mit Blick ins Grüne. Ich hatte ein Bett im 6er Schlafsaal gemietet und es standen 7 Betten darin. Das geht nicht. Wenn ich eine weitere Nacht geblieben wäre, oder einen Aufpreis gezahlt hätte, hätte ich in ein Zimmer mit weniger Betten wechseln können. Die Schaumstoff-Matratzen / Lattenrost waren komplett durchgelegen, so schlimm, dass ich überlegt habe, im Auto zu schlafen. Die Gastgeber waren unhöflich.
jae min (7/5): - 주방시설이 좋았어요 숙소가 너무 멀리 떨어져 있어서 불편했어요
Jennifer (8/5): -
Danny (9/5): - Nice and central to the Lights.
Akane (10/5): -
Brian (8/5): -
Tahlia (10/5): - Friendly, helpful staff. Beautiful place to stay with the family and unwind.
Stephen (8/5): -
Leah (8/5): - Very nice staff, close to town
Tori (5/5): -
Bibi (10/5): Relaxing, safe and friendly. - A clean, comfortable and friendly place to stay. Stayed in the women's only dorm which felt safe and inviting. Loved the natural surroundings and watching the blue eyed eels in the stream. Exceptional shower pressure! Unfortunately one of my dorm mates had a particularly funky odour which made it hard to sleep one night but that's part of the charm of staying in backpackers right?
Robert (9/5): -
Rose-Anne (7/5): Not fancy but if you need a quick cheap stay, this is it. - The service was awesome, very friendly and accommodating. Kitchen and toilets were close to our room, and listening to the ducks were cute. The bed up against the wall, it made the sheets wet.
Chloe (4/5): - Close to town Bathroom to far away. Very cold and dirty feeling
Jaspreet (8/5): - Overall everything was good No shower gel provided.
Sarah (5/5): - Manager Lynn was fantastic, very friendly and helpful. Room small but tidy, and nice location tucked away in nature very close to the town center Walls are quite thin so not much privacy. Other guests pretty loud but did go quiet at a reasonable time
Yuki (8/5): I felt welcomed and it is a peacful area - I loved the staff, our room was good and spacious. the location is central but i felt like i wasn't in the city. very easy going. i loved how hot the showers got! one window in our room had no curtain and didnt close fully. it was cold and let a draft through. our neighbors were horrible unfortunately. staff tried to do what they can but ultimately theres only so much you can do
Bibi (9/5): Safe and friendly and surrounded by nature - Lovely relaxed accommodation surrounded by nature. Clean and friendly.
HIROSHI (4/5): 大変 - キッチンは広く使いやすい看板も無く一時間くらい探した 1人部屋は寒く無機質すぎる部屋
Stacey (5/5): -
Weller (9/5): -
Michael (6/5): -
Hannelore (6/5): - The staff Value for money
Francis (10/5): great very comfy - Everything All good
Nicola (8/5): -
Merit (7/5): Ein problemloser, lustiger Aufenthalt - Das Familienzimmer hatte ausreichend Platz und war sogar mit einem Kühlschrank mit Gefrierschrank ausgestattet. Die Besitzerin war sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und kompetent! Das Besteck in der Küche wurde manchmal knapp
Briony (2/5): Cheap, backpacker style - The room was clean I’ve never stayed anywhere like this! I thought we would be in a separate cabin like most leisure parks but it was a small room in a house almost. The room backed onto the communal shower which was quite noisy. 5pm check in was a pain and when we asked to check in earlier they said they would get back to us and then didn’t. Once we were checked in, my teenage sons were then approached like they were trespassers. Made us feel very unwelcome. If anything else had of been available I would have left
Steve (9/5): - Its great , clean , tidy and comfortable bed.
Blaz (10/5): -

Ian (7/5): Grateful, excellent check in - Shared dorm. Happy to find at late notice. It served OK. Understandably there was some disturbance in the night. Mens Showers had no changing area. The shower itself was clean and perfectly acceptable.
