    I loved the relaxed atmosphere and that a boot dryer was available! Didn't have that at any other hostel I stayed at.

    It is an excellent location if you are planning to visit the south coast and central highlands, with clean common areas, good rooms plus beds(not squeaky at all), warm and hospitable staff, and great food. I'll stay here again in the future.

    We loved the whole vibe. The horses out the window, the tour when we arrived, the hot tub on the deck. Nicest hostel ever. Had multiple families on site.
