Nice historical and beautiful place to stay that seems to double not only as a hostel but a hotel with many other activities to occupy yourself. They make their own and there is a small bar on the first floor to lounge. I got there after dark but the grounds seems big and beautiful. The clerk said the place was built in 1912 ( if I remember correctly) and it shows. The hostel room I had was on the third floor had eight bunk beds with corresponding lockers. You're given a card to access the room and a key to lock your locker. Inside the lockers you're given about three towels and miniature size soap, conditioner and shampoo. You access the bath area with your room card and inside you have six separate full size bathrooms with a shower or tube. Another cool feature about the private bath was the window on the door covered with curtains. Instead of opening the door to talk with someone, you can just pull back the curtains; you can keep yourself concealed and be polite at the same time. The private bathroom is almost worth the cost of the hostel although I gave this place five my dislikes was the eight bunk beds, too many people occuping a room. Nevertheless, everyone was quiet and considerate (thanks partly to my ear plugs) before I knew it I was waking up to a dark room with everyone fast asleep. Which brings me to the other issue--night lights. They should have them for safety and comfortability. There is also no microwave or refrigerator for the hostel rental. Lastly, the location for people taking public transportation. The bus stop coming and going is right in front of the road leading into the property. If you miss that stop you will have to walk a spell and there's no side walks or pedestrian space; you have to walk along the side of the road. In conclusion, I highly recommend visit for a night or two.
