Hostel very well located a few meters from the city center. Very friendly staff? The only downside is that the kitchen and dining room are a little tight compared to the number of people that can be accommodated by the hostel.
Pleasant and perfectly located hostel, in the heart of everything, clean and secure.
Me and my friends stayed there for 3 days and it was absolutely perfect! The room was really nice, the staff was so sweet and helpful, the showers and toilets were clean. Every morning, you wake up with a wonderful breakfast, some bread baked by the staff every day, fruits, tea. What a great way to start the day! It was definitely an unforgettable experience for all of us, it was marvelous! Thanks to the great staff, I highly recommend this place, and this beautiful town!!
This hostel is very well located, welcoming and the staff gives good advice. The free breakfast is very good. I recommend
The mixed dormitory of 10 was comfortable although very dense. Lots of stairs in this hostel.
