The design and open spaces were great, it had a mountain chalet feel. Location in town is exceptional. They offered lots of tour options. The restaurant was great and the outside and upstairs sitting rooms were great places to hang out and have a beer.

The hostel also offers private rooms, where we stayed. The building ir very charming, made of wood and bricks. The rooms were very good too, and ours had a view for the garden. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Specially Leo from the reception, whose greats tips made a difference in our trip. There is a restaurant that opens in the evening at the breakfast venue, which is very nice.

I stayed there twice! The hostel was so close from the Main Street with all the restaurants and bars, breakfast good, the rooms were clean, the common bathroom cleaned regurlarly, they offer discounts on tours if you book two at the same time. A special thank to Leo that helped me so much with all the tours and visits I could do!

I thought that being they offered so many tours I thought they would have more “general” info (like maps of the area, info on glacier etc..) but we were told to go to a travel agency? The rooms are basic but good.
The design and open spaces were great, it had a mountain chalet feel. Location in town is exceptional. They offered lots of tour options. The restaurant was great and the outside and upstairs sitting rooms were great places to hang out and have a beer.

The bed didn't had stairs to get up, which made it really hard do climb without disturbing the whole room.
They have different tour options, with pickup included. The location is great, near the main street, supermarket and restaurant. The breakfast was good.
