Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very well laid out communal cooking, dining and lounge areas. Perfect place for affordable accommodation that is across from the lake and minutes from the town centre. This is the perfect place for young adults upwards, they clearly state no young children. My private ensuite room was very clean and comfortable with lake views and a blacony area. The only thing about my room is they need to fix the front facing window so you can open it especially as the weather warms up

Ok property but not better than others

Decent property, close to everything. Tv in room required a special app to use which we didn't have so no tv for two nights. Really, how expensive is basic cable? The room was expensive for what we got.

The tea and coffee provided in the room were poor- powdered with creamer and sugar. we'd prefer them unmixed and fresh milk to be available. Otherwise, good and a great outlook of the lake

This is at the backpacker / hostel.

After booking the “loft” you get a message that you check in at the backpackers place. I thought this meant that they were short staffed and needed the backpackers reception to help out. Well, our room was at the backpackers’ place and located over the common area/kitchen. Walls in our room were thin so you can hear the conversations of others while they’re in the kitchen. There was a small wine fridge in our room which was a pleasant surprise. Faucet in bathroom was loose and the shower head hose was broken and sprayed everywhere. Would not stay here again because I’m not interested in staying at a backpackers’ hostel anymore at this point of my life.
