"Nice, and importantly for us, quiet hostel. While there was a shared kitchen and bathroom this was not a young party hostel. It was very quiet and very clean. Nothing fancy, but no complaints from us. It's just a few blocks from the main street for restaurants and shops. And we made use of the kitchen for breakfast, lunch and one dinner. "

Los Canelos

Los Canelos

10/10 Excellent
"We love Los Canelos. Definitely a home away from home. We were greeted very warmly by front desk. All the staff are so nice. The lobby and the whole property is very clean, absolutely spotless. It’s always warm when you walk in, which when you’ve been walking in the rain. The view is so beautiful, on a clear day you can see the lake from our window. Also it’s just a very short walk to town. The bridge and road is being renovated so just a little rough of a walk but we didn’t mind."
