  • I'm rather impartial to this hostel. It was the first 'youth' hostel that I stayed at, yet I shared a room with 3 loudly snoring senior gentleman. The staff were helpful when asked for advice, but did not seem to have much enthusiasm. This was also my first experience with the push-button showers, wherein you have to keep pushing the button every minute to keep the water on. Compared to the other hostels I have stayed at this one was rather plain and mediocre. Not bad, but nothing great either.

  • Your hostel is excellent. It's much better than I thought, with reasonable price and great location. Beautiful garden and good atmosphere. However Wifi price is very high. The knifes in kitchen are not sharped enough for meat cutting. Toaster could not keep my bread during cooking (left part). No lighter for gas cooker. The bathroom in room 6 (1st floor) is very cold. No kitchen stand for plates or bowls after washing. Those are very small things. In overall, your hostel is good.

  • 雰囲気とトラディショナルな建物がとても良く、比較的安全だと思います。ですが、wifiが有料というのがちょっと・・・ コークは小さな町なので、夜中の12時になるとメインエントランスはしまり、裏口からのみ入れ、ほぼ全ての電気は消されます。 でも、ただベッドルームとして考えればお得かなと思います。 是非!!

  • The staff was always very helpful and willing to assist with any questions about the town or surrounding areas. If they did not know the answer, they were willing to do some research and find out.
