Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Very limited room count — With just 8 rooms, availability is tight and the hostel may feel crowded if fully booked.
  • No pets allowed — Guests travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere, as pets are not permitted.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in runs from 15:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals after midnight aren't accommodated.
