"This was a wonderful hostel to stay at! The host was very kind and caring, they were flexible with our arrival time, and prepared food for us in good time (and they catered to vegans and the food itself was very nice!). The hostel itself was very clean, it has a nice garden, it is near a river. Very good relaxation spot!"
