6.0

Nice and roomy,

A bit dated and as a builder myself there is quite a bit of maintenance required.

Anders als erwartet.

5.0

Die Lange ist super.

Die Rezeption war weder Telefonisch verfügbar noch vor Ort anwesend. Die anderen Gäste waren lange wach und laut. Sehr hellhöriges Haus.

Die Liebe fehlt und man braucht gute Mitbewohner

6.0

Super Lage, hübsches Haus mit Dorm

Die Sauberkeit ließ zu wünschen übrig (schwarze Haare in der Dusche bei nur blonden Bewohnern?!), die Küche war sehr benutzt. Leider ist auch die Konstruktion nicht im Sinne eines Hostels: Der Aufenthaltsraum ist ohne Abtrennung neben dem Schlafbereich. Wenn also jemand ein Billardturnier austrägt, kann niemand schlafen.

The location

Honestly the staff was barely present, the heating was barely working and the flat was full of mold.

Nice stay in Punakaiki

9.0

I was hosted in a house with kitchen, living room, lounge. The room was quite large and there were two shared toilets and two showers. Nice and quiet place surrounded by the woods.
