Overall we had a great stay with Stephen and Silvana. Their place is perfectly located, has some fantastic communal spaces inside and out, and the breakfast was homemade and delicious. Be aware, however, this place is NOT going to be to everyone’s taste - it is a hostel pure and simple and is designed around its large dorms. This was fine for us as it is what we were looking for and we would stay again - reminded us of travels much further from home. For all its charm though, the place needs some serious investment in the right places. Take, for example, the heating in the hut which consisted of a slow cooker filled with sand. Ingenious maybe but safe? I would have loved to have seen the hostel in its prime - I think it has just been a while since any money has been spent on it.
