Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 17:00, so you need to plan your arrival carefully.
  • Small property — With just 11 rooms, availability is tight and the hostel can feel busy during peak periods.
  • Dorm rooms are compact — A few guests note the dormitories are on the smaller side, though they still have their own bathrooms.
  • No pets allowed — If you travel with an animal, this hostel is not an option.
