Accommodation Information
It is a small hostel with only a few studio apartments/rooms. There is no elevator. It is a very old but typical house. The rooms are small. The kitchen corners are basic: 2 hotplates, fridge, sink, some dishes. The bathrooms are narrow and have a shower and toilet. The beds may be single beds or good double bed sofas. There is no TV in the rooms.
Most of the rooms have free wi-fi.
The single room has also a small kitchen corner and a private shower and toilet, but it is up on the attic and the stairs up there are very high, so it is recommended only for young healthy guests! In summer it might be warm, so there is a good cooling fan. Unfortunately up there is no wi-fi, but there is wi-fi in the sitting-area in the courtyard.
