The city centre is relatively close, the looks of the house outside and inside is very cute, the room was cosy and comfortable for two people, one of the two beds was a bit bgger so we as a couple slept in only one bed (if a couple is put off by the separate beds). Boiler gets very short time to heat up so that was quite cool and there is a little cute kitchen in the room which is convenient as well. There is also a beautifull sun-kissed balcony, although it was right next to the neighbours’ one. For the price, it really paid off and we would recommend it, as well as come back.

Good ambient. At the moment I was there the staff was very friendly. The owner is a great person you can make a conversation and will guide what to visit, where to go, what to taste, etc. The place is very comfortable for a digital nomad as myself. They have a free coffee with a cookie every morning and you can sit a work from there. Has a very nice cafe and restaurant nearby which seems made for that purpose as well.

I looooved the stay in this hostel!! Although I booked only 2 nights, I kept extending my stay for one week! The staff made everything perfect! Not only they create a great group vibe with different activities at night but they were also very friendly and interactive. I arrived very late in the first night and they found a strategy to provide me a way to access to my room (although the reception was already closed)

Balcony has a nice view. Shower was always hot and is not hand held which was a bonus. Internet was great. Air Conditioner was good. We had no TV in our room. (but we new this when we booked) Stairs only to our room (no lift) but only 2 set of stairs at the most. Large Room. Safe and Secure. Clean facilties. Bed was comfortable and clean. Cooking facilities in our room are basic (no kettle to boil water) but enough in the kitchen to cook. Has Frypan. They also have a common area but we did not use this area as we had our own kitchen. Owner and Staff were helpful and happy to answer any questions. Very good communication with the owner regarding any questions prior to our arrival. Easy check in and out. It is a good 20 - 30 minute walk from the train station and some is up hill with your bags. Once you know where you are located the walk back to train/bus station would be quicker. Train and Bus services all leave from the same area. Location is good. To get to the water/port is about 15 - 20 min walk.

Always a pleasure to stay at Arabas. Had a lovely time staying in a room on my own for a couple of nights and getting the peace and quiet I craved. Much better than a hotel because you can meet nice people as well as getting your personal space.

The room is like a small apartment. You have a kitchenette with a fridge, sofa bed, table with chairs, a balcony to sit outside and even a TV if you really need one. The hostel is up on a hill in a very very quiet street. You will not hear any street noise. I do love the neighborhood - it has a village feeling. Check in and out was fast and painless. Staff is friendly, and the whole place is relaxed. It was quiet at night and in the day. You can chill on the balcony or downstairs in the small seating area.

Super relaxed garden with outside cooking area, which they also clean regularly. The staff plays awesome music inside when I was there (jamming), but the garden is so big that you can sit anywhere and do your own thing. Its also situated beautifully just outside the city center. Just a super relaxed hostel! Wonderful volunteers working there also!

Very cozy environment, super friendly stuff and customers good who contribute in an alternative home like style. Totally worth it for someone to make new friends and meet new people, also worth it to go as a couple too since the place is 2km away from the center.
