Lovely lovely hostel. Richard and Liliana and their daughter Kati are super sweet and accommodating. Jessica who helps with cooking and cleaning is also super nice and I loved chatting with her! The beds are so comfortable and warm and I love that they’re wooden single beds instead of bunk beds! They also have ample shelving in the dorms which is amazing for storage and keeping organized! The brick walls and and matching yellow comforters and little garden are so charming. It’s very close to the center of town but just far enough away that it’s a bit more residential area and a bit calmer and quieter. Well stocked be well organized kitchen that’s open from 4-9pm. The breakfast is simple but good- coffee, tea, juice, breads with jam and butter, and either eggs or pancakes. They also are super helpful organizing tours or day trips at a good price. Sweet kitties to snuggle with as well! I stayed here for 8 nights and slept so well. It’s so quiet and calm. Thanks Richard...

Shower has hot water and great water pressure (a life saver when you come home tired from walking all day). They offer a quick laundry cleaning service at a great price, which was useful between hikes. The hostel is located in front of a lovely little park full of flowers and benches, and the view of the snow covered mountains is...
Read moreThis hostel has a lot of potential but it is not yet there! The staff is really nice and helpful, they let me do a very early check-in an even offered me breakfast on the first arrival day. The location is great! 5-10minutes walking to the main areas. The sheets and beds are new and clean. The room however is moldy (see picture) and the carpet was not really clean. The bathroom needs some maintenance and it would be great if you could buy a toilet cover that fits the size of the toilet. The shower was hot and pressure was good but the water was cut at around 23:00 (I think it was not the hostel fault...). The breakfast changes every day and the WiFi is good. I hope the facilities...
