Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hosts were fantastic. They were very kind and organised the accommodation very well. They provided lockers for boots and rucksacks- no rucksacks in the dormitory- which makes complete sense- things are tidy and nobody is taking up too much space. The dormitory was not too crowded and the beds were comfortable. Shower areas are clean and ample. The sleeping area was quiet from 9.00-9.30. The dormitory overlooks quite a busy place but it was quiet when I visited.

    It looked like a fairytale, so pretty and quaint. There were ducks in the garden with a little pond. The dormitory itself was very comfortable. Think there were ten beds in total. The bunk beds were solid and not the often flimsy creaky type. Bathroom clean and nice. The breakfast was much appreciated. Many thanks to the owner who looked after us very well.
