Good hostel, but not cheap. Great that facilities are available but you pay for everything. Staff great and friendly. They will go out of their way to help. The rooms are spacious but in mid summer, uncomfortably hot. Overall a pleasant experience.

The place was very nice and position is very good. The rooms appeared to be a little less cozy that what I guess from pictures but still ok. I was unlucky with the weather, so I was missing some furniture in the room to put my wet clothes to dry (like coat stand or something like that).
