Liked: Nice little family owned hostel. The hosts ware super friendly and try to help whenever they can. They even called me on my arrival to know when to pick me up. Rooms were all clean as the whole hostel. You feel like you are staying in a shared flat with a nice kitchen and living room:) I would totally recommend this hostel

Liked: I really enjoyed my stay at Gilligan's ! My room was clean, the bed was comfortable, there was a desk in my room and a free internet connexion. There was also a free transport in the city center multiple time each days, which was really useful. The staff was amazing, helpful and friendly ! :)I would stay there again for sure !
Disliked: A bit far from the city center, but they can take you to the city center for free in the morning and the evening, so it wasn't a problem

Liked: It was really clean and safe. Kitchen was great. Not only dishes and pans but also salt and pepper, soy source, and oil, almost everything was there.
Disliked: We stayed more than 10 days there but we never used the bus to go to the city, so it's possible enough to walk there. It was a little bit noisy everyday, but when it becomes 10 pm, they stop drinking, singing, and listening to music.
