The place was cute, clean and quiet. However, I only had a fan in my room and it was on full-blast and it was still 27 degrees Celsius (80 Fahrenheit). I also did not like the idea of sharing a bathroom (4 rooms to share 1 bathroom), but it turned out ok. I hadn’t read the fine print

This is a historic building from 1935 converted from a residence for single gold miners to a lovely hostel. It is set in a neighborhood of preserved log cabins built by the mining company at the same time. The hostel is also in walking distance to the mine museum and very nice bistro. Loved it all!
