Can't beat the location, everything is literally in walking distance with the only need for a hire car for roaming, all the shuttles are the next street over for most activities and tours. We cracked it with free parking aswell which was close to accommodation. And views from the shared kitchen area are breathtaking. Clean accommodation, staff friendly with lots of advice.

Great location
Our family of three stayed in a private room with two bunk beds and private bath. Worked fine- clean and comfortable. Location was stellar, right downtown by the lake. Staff were helpful with local information, tour booking etc
short of staff so front desk was not manned all the time. No parking available. Very basic as is a hostel.Location is awesome. overpriced for a hostel with no parking

Excellent central location, basically the best situated place for people who likes to stay in the middle of everything. Very friendly and helpful staff, very clean and tidy. Both communal bathroom and kitchen was always clean and no bar odor anywhere in the vicinity. Guaranteed staying again and exploring other rooms next time.

Cool place right in the center of the town
Nice view of the lake in the kitchen, save some money by hitting the kitchen instead of the bar
