Nice, and importantly for us, quiet hostel. While there was a shared kitchen and bathroom this was not a young party hostel. It was very quiet and very clean. Nothing fancy, but no complaints from us. It's just a few blocks from the main street for restaurants and shops. And we made use of the kitchen for breakfast, lunch and one dinner.

Porte traballanti, brutto odore in stanza, prese con nastro adesivo, pulsante per il doccino guasto. Personale gentile e disponibile.
