Liked: nearly everything. This hostel is so good, that even the 20 minute walk from the city doesen't really matter. e.g. Sauna, Fitnessroom, Whirlpool, beautyful rooms, well sorted kitchen, very cosy common-rooms, huge list of dvds, best information, free bikes, fresh eggs from own chicks... I traveld a lot: This is perfection!
