ItalyThe common area is great and the location is fantastic (bus stop close also!). Kitchen is well furnished and staff was very nice. Comfortable rooms and clean facilities.

Icelandthe hostel is in a very good location, just on the road and next to the lake - so the views from the hostel are beautiful. staff and environment was really nice and there are a lot of information on what to do around the area. the rooms were clean and the bed comfortable enough, and toilets and shower were also ok. kitchen has a lot that you can use to cook and put your stuff if you need, and the common area is big where everyone gathers around there. we didn’t have the breakfast there, for 3,5£ (I think) you get a basic but good breakfast. there is coffee and tea for free for everyone. this is a really nice place to stay to visit the Loch Ness and explore around :)

United KingdomLocation on the Loch Ness is amazing and it has a sort of private access to the lake beach. Large kitchen and very vintage cottage atmosphere in the common living room. Very satisfying breakfast at a honest price. Bus stop on the A82 just in front of the hostel in both ways. View from common area and bedroom was unbelievably beautiful.
