Liked: The location

Disliked: Roomdoors are very noisy: hard to sleep when someone comes in. The heather is also noisy. My mattress was not flat, if you sleep on the side or on the front, you might have backpain in the morning... It's disapointing because the rest of the hostel is nice...

Liked: A very well organised group. Everyone always had answers to my questions and they just provide everything you could need.

Disliked: Some other visitors did not take others needs into consideration, but that could happen anywhere. It does get a bit too hot downstairs to be comfortable.
