Cute Hostel
The kitchen was well organized, and the rooms and bathrooms were kept tidy. The café was an excellent addition with a yummy continental breakfast that we added on.

The accommodation is good. The check in was uncomplicated. The kitchen is well equipped. The rooms are also equipped with the essentials. However, the bed sheets were dirty. The cleanliness could be better.

The good: beautiful common areas
The bad:
overpriced—no bed linen and no towel unless you pay extra
no breakfast unless you pay $20 extra—not even the simple bread and butter like other guesthouses/backpackers

I like all the antique setting. It made me feel back to grandma's house. It made me feel home.
We have difficulty to turn on stove and the manager showed up quickly to show us about the stove.
There are washroom on every floor and several showers in the basement.

Lovely place with a vintage vibe. Very clean and cozy. Our room was smaller than expected but worked just fine for just one overnight stay. Kitchen in the basement was a great addition. Would happily stay again for a short stay.

Très bien positionné. Accueil peu convivial.
Accueil peu convivial.
L'essentiel des équipements est assuré malgré un équipement électrique insuffisant dans la chambre.
Les parties communes ont un certain charme.
Le cadre extérieur est magnifique.
