    The beds were very close to one another, which is an inconvenience if someone snored loudly during the night.

    The common area, kitchen, and facilities were fabulous. The location is brilliant to visit in the winter.

    The beds were quite small (and as someone who's only 5'4", that's saying a lot) and the plastic-y mattress was quite noisy to sleep on.

    The price point was good for me as I only needed to crash for the night. I was also offered a room to myself on check-in since I was the last person to check in, rather than the female only shared dorm i had initially booked, so that was a nice perk.

    The place is in dire need of an upgrade. Besides poor signage, the building shows signs of age. Water in the showers is tricky to adjust due to old fixtures; there is a lack of individual lighting and power outlets by each bunk.

    Staff was friendly, and the hostel had plenty of amenities.

    only a single washroom on the level of the bedroom. It would be good if there is more than one washroom.

    Beautiful scenery from the patio looking at the larch trees and I could see the train travelling through the woods from the far. Complete kitchenware. Easy to prepare meal from the kitchen. Quiet environment at night.

    There are a lot of beds in the room. It would help to organize guests by when they arrive and depart. I got in late-ish (19:30) and several others were in bed and the lights were out. It hard to open a backpack and make bed silently in the dark. I’m sure I disturbed the sleepers. Another couple arrived an hour later than me and had the same problem. The early sleepers had either an early flight or early hike because they were up at 04:00 and making the same disturbance we were the night before. No had a long sleep option.

    A beautiful view. A great kitchen. A pretty convenient location. A good value for last minute travel plans.

    Its far from public transport. The distance from the lst bus stop to the property is exhausting and unsafe as I had to walk along a motorway. It’d be awesome if they can have an on-call shuttle to pick people up when they dont have their own vehicle.

    Super friendly staff and clean rooms/bathrooms. Definitely recommending.

    The rooms get a little hot during the night.

    I just had to share with you all how incredible this place is! The view from the patio is absolutely breathtaking and the staff here is incredibly kind and helpful. One of the things I especially loved about this place is the fully equipped kitchen, which was perfect for us to cook ourselves a delicious supper after a tiring day of exploration. Needless to say, I am definitely keeping this place in mind for future trips.

    The 4 bed dorm was small, you couldnt keep bags in room if it was full, there was lockers 2 floors down tho. Can hear every noise, conversation from other rooms.

    Rest areas comfortable with incredible views. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you could need. Staff really friendly and helpful.

    Umm. It is weird. Well, it is a hostel. We are used to staying in hotels. So we were shocked to see no fridge in the room, no microwave in the room. Shared bathrooms. No temperature control for the specific room.

    Comparing with the price this place as totally worth it. In the forest, cabin vibes, beautiful view.. Whole property was just so beautiful. Rooms were small, just the beds in the room. Well, it is good if you just go there to sleep or if a really really big family go there to spend all of their time in the hostel.

    The single beds were so so uncomfortable I don’t think anyone in my group of 4 had a good sleep. And with it being their first hostel experience it was hard to sell them on the concept after that.

    Beautiful location with a large kitchen and lots of lounge areas. I’ve been to hostels as a single traveller before and this would have been amazing.

    Like in any hostel, the beds could have been a little more comfortable.

    It is a very comfortable quiet hostel with a cosy home-like atmosphere. Kitchen had all the necessary utensils, wass clean and spacious. Great location too!
