    This sustainable hotel has dormitory-style rooms accommodating from 6-14 participants (single gender) and private rooms (available for upgrades upon request. Bathrooms are shared).

    Wi-fi is freely available in the hostel, and of course in many cafes and restaurants.

    Around the house, there are big common areas to relax and meet other people from all over the world.
