Incredible staff
The staff at this hostel were truly the best! So friendly and helpful! This hostel is located in a great part of the city. We felt safe and could easily walk or take the bus wherever. We fell in love with the view of the city and with our late night talks with our hosts. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip.

Great place on the outskirts of downtown
Great location, great owner and magnificent view! The room was clean and the hostel is comfortable and relaxed. Quiet location but walkable to town (30 min) or there are busses going from the main road constantly. The view in itself makes this place worth the stay. Highly recommend.

Très bien - Grand balcon formidable
Chambres correctes pour le prix. Salle de bain commune mais très propre. Le gros plus de l'hôtel est le grand balcon bien aménagé avec une super vue. Je recommande sans hésiter.
