Very friendly staff! Told us where to go out at night and were generally interested in getting to know the guests. Beds were comfortable, showers clean, couldn't ask for more!

Was pretty dead for the night I was there, not many people staying there. I guess at busier times it would have been better. Also the bathrooms weren't the cleanest. The sign is only noticeable once you find the actual door to the building, but the directions to get there are good.

I have never been to such a welcoming place. staff was unbelievably friendly and knowledgable, the common room was always full- if your looking for something a bit more eclectic and personal, its the place to be. best hostel i have found in europe.

ES UN HOSTEL UN POCO PARTICULAR, LAS PUERTAS DE LAS HABITACIONES NO SE CIERRAN CON LLLAVE NI NADA SIMILAR. EL AMBIENTE ES MAS DE UNA CASA RURAL, PERO LA VERDAD ES QUE SE ESTA AGUSTO.
