Hostel dorm rooms have lots of fans, no air-conditioning.

Occasionally, because space is limited, we will desiginate one of the dorm rooms as  mixed in order to accomodate all arrivals.   If you are willing to be in a mixed dorm please designate on the hostel reservation "single sex or mixed".

Kitchen is open 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Kitchen has refrigerator, range, microwave, dishes and utensils - there is not an oven. The kitchen is small so there is limited storage space. Dining area is in the garden or under the shelter at picnic tables.

Small lockers are provided in the dorms.  Please bring your own padlock, or one may be purchased locally.

If you are visiting in April, the weather can sometimes still be cool. This is a summer hostel and the dorm rooms are not heated. We have blankets and there is plenty of hot water.

During some holidays, a 3 night minimum stay is required. 

Sorry, no pets permitted.

In the Hostel, we only accommodate guests who are on vacation/holiday. We cannot accommodate people who are here to live and work.
