An excellent hostel! One of the best I have ever been! It looks like Miss Marples living room and everything is so clean! Very nice little garden! Jörgen, from Germany ~ 12th Jul 2009

This hostel was amazing! With throw pillows on the beds, a wash basin in every room, an enormous (and cheap--L1.75) continental breakfast, nightly activities, a well-appointed lounge, and a staff that volunteered to carry the luggage for us, this place was more like a hotel than a hostel. We just spent two weeks in Europe, in four different places, and this hostel beat out the other three HOTELS where we stayed for our top accommodation pick for the trip. James, from USA ~ 29th May 2009
