Feels like home. An old but very nice building. Minus is that the reception closes pretty early (at least in November).

We loved this hostel, it had so much character and was very warm and friendly. Free wi- fi and tea & coffee was a bonus. Kitchen and bathrooms were spotlessly clean and bedroom was so spacious, even had a sofa. Definately best hostel on our trip.

I stayed in a single room which had a double bed in it, so a bit compact, but very comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely & clean. The comminial room was very relaxing. Did appeal to more mature people, but this made it a nice and quiet stay.

We had a twin room and it was a great size, much bigger than we have had anywhere else on our travels. The kitchen was excellent, well equiped and spacious. They had a good lounge and the staff were really helpful and friendly. Bathrooms were cleaned daily and were well maintained and to top it off they had free wifi.
