Wonderful staff - when I checked in I really wanted to try speaking in French and the staff member I spoke with was so patient and stuck to French but used lots of miming and gestures to help me out. I really appreciated it - I had heard him speak word-perfect English with someone else so I was so grateful that he let me try even though I am sure it could have been frustrating for him. Wish I'd asked his name so I could tell the hostel what a great person they have! Hostel has everything I needed - comfy bed with a privacy curtain, clean toilets and showers, nicely decorated throughout, proper kitchen and eating area. And then, as a lovely bonus, the cafe is so nice!
