Nice relaxing hostel
Comfortable bed. Decent hot shower. Lockers in the dorm that appeared to be secure. Unusually for a hostel, they provided shampoo and handwash in the showers and bathroom. It's rather spartan but is relaxing and enjoyable. Has most things you need. The one thing lacking was a kettle.

Great experience
It was great the location, the room and everything but I really think there should be a curtain for a hostel to keep the privacy for the guest and the wifi is not really good. Still the overall is great the staff are really nice. I would recommended it👍
