Guests at the hostel can enjoy a buffet breakfast. Such an incredible place to stay! The house itself was beautiful and very well kept. The private room that we booked was away from the main part of the house which was great for a couple like us that wanted our own space at the end of the day. Everyone was so friendly and made us feel really welcome. The included breakfast was very generous. Definitely recommend!

If you come here expecting a big party hostel with a lot of alcohol and testosterone fueled action , you will be disappointed.
