Liked: Je recommande cette auberge à tout les voyageur de passage à N-Y pour quelque jours ou un long séjour cette auberge est parfaite. La décoration est très cossu et les chambres son ultra confortables. La maîtresse de maison est juste adorable et sera toujours là pour vous aider et vous donnez des petits conseils concernant votre visite de la ville. Vous vous sentirez comme à la maison dans cette auberge de jeunesse. Par contre je la déconseille à des jeunes en groupe qui parte à N-Y pour faire la fête car l'ambiance là-bas est calme est tranquille.
