Our room only had 1 bedside cabinet for 2 beds. It wasn't immediately obvious how to obtain our included breakfast, and when I asked a member of staff about it, she seemed surprised.

Great location with a fantastic view.

On top of being on a great location, the hostel was very clean and the staff were amazing! There was free overnight parking along the main street. The only downside was, people were leaving their shoes outside their rooms along the hallway and it stank.

Die Matratzen sind ok. Leider nehmen die übrigen Gäste wenig Rücksicht und sind abends lange laut. Da die Toiletten nebenan lagen, hörten wir die Nacht über ständig Schritte auf dem Gang und Türen klappern. Rohes Hähnchen im Spüllappen (was natürlich ebenfalls an den anderen Gästen lag), kippelnder Tisch. Das Wifi reicht nicht bis on die Schlafräume.
