Reviewer:�� Anonymous from Aberdeen, Scotland � ��.one of the best hostels around. Jan and Sid have come up with an oasis in an already sparkling part of the world. .. I think in the not too distant future it's going to be very hard to get a bed here. This place is absolutely a home away from home. And then some.
