Average hostel experience, there is a electric plug next to the bed and a cabinet that can be locked with a padlock. the bathroom is shared outside of the room, but it is well organized. If you have forgotten something, spare shampoo tooth paste etc.. are available in the bathroom probably left behind by someone.

Perfect spot to rest . We enjoyed the suggestion to refresh at the stream or walk uo the hill behind or relax by the fire . We enjoyed hearing fellow travelers adventures . Since we were mostly tent camping but all sites were full on the weekend we had our own pillow , sheet and sleeping bag but those are offered nice and clean for weary travelers.

Very clean and well-kept place! Everything you might need was available, and the kitchen, shower, and bathroom were all clean and comfortable. The location is beautiful, with so many great spots to explore nearby. The staff were also very friendly and gave us lots of helpful tips about the area and sightseeing places. We honestly felt like we made a good friend there. We really wish we could have stayed one more day!
