Summary: Really nice hostel! The staff are lovely and willing to help with whatever questions you have! Stayed in the 4-bed female dorm and it was pretty good - the floor was quite creaky underneath the carpets in the room so it was hard to be quiet when I had to be up early some of the days (thankfully the other guests were not bothered by this!). The head space on the top bunk was a bit tight but I was comfortable enough for the stay. Bathrooms and shower rooms were clean and tidy. Kitchen and common areas were very spacey and you never felt like you were climbing on top of anyone while cooking. There wasn’t too many people during my stay but it was also early spring. The hostel is also not even 5 minutes walk from where the tours typically go from and where the intercity buses go. Would recommend this place for anyone staying in the area.
