We liked everything. The beds were soft & comfortable, the bathroom is large & beautiful. The kitchenette has a washing machine, which was very useful. The location is quiet & close to town. We had a mountain view which was beautiful. The owners are very welcoming & lovely. My son enjoyed meeting Romeo the horse & feeding him.

    Great little boutique style accomm with not too many rooms. The rooms are nice and clean with comfy beds. Also plenty of parking. The garden is gorgeous and we spent hours outside reading in the sun - there’s plenty of lovely touches such as seating, umbrellas and cushions. We didn’t use the hot tub but it looked great. It’s very close to the town, just a short stroll downhill.

    The Tokyo pop designer apartment was super cool with the eccentric pieces throughout the apartment! Couldn’t stop taking photos of everything inside! The bathroom is amazingly spacious and has heated tiles which is just such a luxury experience. The entire apartment has great heating. The host was super attentive and addressed an issue I had that made the rest of my stay super enjoyable. I would recommend staying at the designer apartment!!

    One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at… Huge kitchen well designed so lots of people can cook & clean at once, heaps of food storage/fridge space, great dining area facing gorgeous views of Mts through glass windows & warmed by fireplace, decent space in dorms to be able to open bags/hang stuff on hooks, also really love the fact that most dorms conveniently have their own bathroom! The friendly staff keep the place very clean and tidy! Thanks for a lovely stay!
