Awesome old hospital building, great kitchen area and overall atmosphere. Rooms and bathrooms are very nice. Check in was super easy, too. We had some bad weather during our stay so we and our little one really appreciated all the toys and games they have.

Great place to stay! The staff was helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable, with sauna and steam rooms on site. The area was so beautiful with close walking access to the town center, walking trails, and waterfront.

Hidden on the other side of a mountain. Cool place
Cool old hospital converted to a hostel. The kitchen was nice. Building very very old, but was still charming.

We booked a double room with private bathroom, and the quality of the room was comparable or even better than a 3-star hotel. The hostel's communal areas (kitchen, bathrooms, lounge areas) were clean, cosily furnished, and very well-equipped. There was a strong personal touch to the decor, signage and overall experience. Really enjoyed our stay!
