“Good option if you prefer to be on the outskirts of the city”
This is a really good option if you don't mind staying out of town or if you own a car. Despite being an older building it looks to have been recently renovated and has a modern feel inside. The room was spacious and beds comfortable. We were lucky to have the shared bathroom to ourselves. Basic breakfast provided. Friendly, chilled staff.

“Back to school:)”
I stayed only one night, arrived super late and left very early, so havrn't met anybody from staff or socialized. Had to dive into my laptop and sleep asap. BUT!! Place is gorgeous, it is actually an old promary school, and is a museum of sort fused with nice basic hostel facilities. Cleanliness was good, only in livingroom i felt a bit of odour, but that could be one of the dweller's socks:) in general descent and clean. Position was perfect for arriving by car. I also apreciate having a reason to not be in center wher it is obviously an epicenter. View over the gulf is beautiful, fresh air washes from the mountains. Dorms were nice, clean basic, all a traveller needs. Dedinetly will pin this place on my map

“I arrived at 10:45 PM and checked in at 11:30 PM.I was tired. That's why I stayed.”
Upon arrival there was no place to park the car. There was no one at the reception. They gave me the room number over the phone where the lock was broken and the door wouldn't close. Over the phone they assigned me another room where I found a cockroach.

Great place, I’ve only spent one night but the staff was very friendly and helpful, answered all my questions, suggested place to eat dinner and when we realised it was closed helped me find some online delivery food. Definitely recommended

What a gorgeous place! This hostel is so worth the detour. I loved it. And I loved the furry friends coming to visit in the evening even more.
