Honestly pretty misleading advert. Appeared like the booking would be a little cabin infront of a lake /water, turns out that's just a grassy patch for camping and the room is in a different shabbier building, no water body around at all. Besides that, not a bad place, just misleading ad.

The staff were welcoming and helpful. I had my own room, which was perfectly comfortable and quiet. The place is essentially a hostel and campground (in an urban setting). The yard was lively on the weekend evenings as there is an outdoor bar and BBQ service that locals also use. They serve pastries (small charge) and free coffee in the morning. The location is reasonably convenient, walkable to the old town sights. All-in-all a pleasant place to stay.

Room is clean. This is a hostel so if you prefer peace and quiet this place might not be for you. Sound travels as well, so I could hear people conversing under my window at 3am in the morning which disturbed my sleep. Earplugs are provided however by the accomodation. Free filter coffee provided each morning was great and the location is excellent. Only 2 toilets on my level between quite a few rooms as well (not ideal).

I booked a cabin for 3 nights. The photos looked wonderful. Cabins in front of a small lake and the ad stated a private bathroom in the cabin. We arrived to a run down building and our cabin did not have a bathroom, it was a shared both in the main building. There were also not enough bathrooms for all the guests. Instead of a lake in front of the cabin, it was wall to wall tents and campers. The only good thing was the staff who refunded me for 2 nights and I only had to spend one night there. It is a run down hostel and not a cheap one either. Be informed if you book a room or cabin.
