The location was super convenient for walking around the CBD and shopping, and was close to a couple of supermarkets and bus routes. The apartment itself was finished to a high standard, was thoughtfully furnished with vintage and antique pieces and had pretty much thought of everything we might need for our stay, including jam and butter in the fridge and Vogels and porridge sachets on the counter. It was a slice of luxury to come back to after a long day of walking around the city. It felt secure, it was clean and airy, and there was plenty of space to move around and relax in. The view of the First Church of Otage out of the living room windows was the cherry on top. Bonus point to one of the hosts, Dan, because he was able to arrange an early check-in for me on the day I arrived and was also able to arrange a place for my sister and I to store our bags between check-out and our pickup to go to the airport - both things took a huge amount of stress off of my plate and meant we could relax and make the most of our time in the city, so thank you again for your flexibility Dan!

The elevated location offered good views and the morning sun allowed us to wake up refreshed and ready to start the next day's itinerary. It was also conveniently close to a supermarket. The surrounding area is a quiet residential area and a walk to the nearby park gave us a view of the sea. The facilities are clean and comfortable.

The accommodation is perfect. The hostel's location is unbeatable. Just a 10-minute walk takes you to the city center. The surrounding area is super safe, with plenty of free and secure parking. By car, you're just 5 minutes from the most popular supermarkets. You can go for a leisurely walk through the area's parks, as well as to the city center, and you'll always feel safe. As for the facilities, everything is absolutely new and spotless. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. There are plenty of bathrooms, and they're always clean and fully equipped with soap, hand towels, and hair dryers! The showers have hot water and excellent water pressure, and plenty of space for everyone who wants to use them. It has many very comfortable seating areas with new, super-comfortable armchairs, ideal for relaxing with your laptop or cell phone undisturbed. The kitchen is something never seen before. All the cutlery, glasses, cups, and pots and pans are brand new. Plenty of space to cook, and above all, the necessary utensils. A microwave, oven, toaster, French press coffee maker, and all the kitchen utensils you could need. The best thing about this area is that it has a beautiful view of the street with large windows that allow you to enjoy your coffee in complete relaxation. The TV area is wonderful. The TV is state-of-the-art and allows you to watch all the streaming platforms while reclining or sitting on the new armchairs. It's also an excellent area to read a book or chat with the other tenants. One of my favorite spaces. At the same time, everything mentioned above has a classic and impeccable style that gives off an air of tranquility and comfort that I've rarely experienced in a hostel. Lastly, and best of all, is the attentiveness of the hosts. They are always attentive and willing to help with anything you need, improving and adding elements to the place to make your stay feel like being in your own home.
