Amazing little spot with perfect sized rooms. We were two couples travelling together and the rooms suited our needs perfectly. The staff was very accommodating and check in/out was a breeze. Cannot recommend this property enough. My only regret is we didn’t stay longer!

We weren't sure at first about staying here because it was a hostel but I'll say it was probably nicer than a lot of hotels we stayed at and one of the nice additional benefits was being able to use the kitchen. This place was very clean very centrally located and it was quiet
