All units in the hostel are fitted with a kettle. Rooms come with a shared bathroom, a safety deposit box and free WiFi, while some rooms include a terrace and some have city views. The rooms will provide guests with a fridge. It's exceptionally clean, especially for a hostel. I literally saw them cleaning even the walls and the ceiling fan. Bathrooms cleaned multiple times a day. Comfy beds with proper: mattresses and spotless sheets. They change bed sheets on request up to every two days and towels daily (I didn't need them changed this often but love the possibility to ask whenever you need). The owners very super kind and helpful. The live the hostel themselves, therefore they really treat it like home and are always available if you need something. Everyone I met here was nice and even though the hostel lacks a proper social area you'd often find someone sitting at the table outside to have a chat over a drink with.
