Excellent

Really cool little hostel. Lots of common areas. Bed in dorm was really private. The room was surprisingly quiet too. Easy to locate and free parking at a nearby church. Kitchen was well stocked and the property was clean. Staff were grand as well.

Fantastic stay!

It was the coziest, most communal hostel I’ve ever experienced! It’s truly something special that you can’t even put into words- you just have to experience. From the shared kitchen space and dining around a table, to the immaculate gardens (with a bee hive and chicken coop), it’s a rare find. I loved all the plants, natural light, and glow of the whole place. They also include a free breakfast that has their homemade bread and fresh eggs from their chickens available if you’re lucky! They also had sweet dogs who might as well be therapy pets. It’s walkable to everything too which is a huge bonus, but not too close to the main strip to where it’s too loud at night. Highly recommend !

Comfy & clean stay

Super lovely place! Roomy beds, plenty of room to store luggage underneath and privacy curtains were appreciated. Kitchen was nice and included free pasta and eggs as well as standard spices. Finding an open bathroom/shower was never a problem. Staff are also helpful and friendly and the best part: they have dogs!!

Great atmosphere. Fantastic and amazingly help staff. Perfect location.

This is one of the best hostels I have ever stayed in. It had fantastic atmosphere. There is an obvious concern on environmental impact. Great location, just minutes walk to the national park. I cannot praise the staff more! They are extremely helpful and courteous. I look forward to staying there again in the future

Safe Hostel

This hostel is different than most others than I have visited, it is a little more 'hippy' in many ways. The staff are nice and helpful, would stay again. The breakfast is a little less variied than some, but you can at times get free eggs from the chickens in the yard.
