Great hotel! Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant serves delicious food and has vegetarian options as well and very affordable prices. The community kitchen is massive, having a travel agency for local attractions is simply amazing. 100% recommendable!

Perfectly comfortable hostel. Nice shared eating area with what looked like quite a lot of well furnished kitchen space. Room with an ensuite bath was comfortable, had everything I needed for a long layover before continuing further south. There’s a desk where you can get info about things to do in the area and the staff there were really helpful- I didn’t know whether they’d just be trying to push pricey tours on me but they were very happy to just help me pick between a variety of free hikes and figure out how to get to them. That was super appreciated!
