For an Easter trip, the complementary egg painting activity and Easter egg hunt were great additions. The hostel is located in a picturesque area with easy accessibility to different hiking trails and outdoor activities. The shared spaces were comfortable and provided a great opportunity to meet new people.
The breakfast options were limited, lacking fresh fruit and variety. The water pressure in the showers could be improved, making for an unpleasant experience.

Its location in front of a small mall with grocery stores and a gas station makes it convenient for all your needs. The staff are friendly and helpful, ensuring a comfortable stay. The rooms, especially the ones on the upper level with glass windows at the top, are clean and well-maintained. Plus, the included breakfast is a delicious and satisfying start to your day.
Everything was great, nothing to improve.

The ambience was really cozy, and there were lots of fun activities to keep you busy. The breakfast was complimentary and delicious, while the location was close to the town and public transport links. The hostel also offered free passes for bus travel, which was really handy and saved us money on transportation.
The wifi was a bit dodgy, which was frustrating when we were trying to communicate with family and friends. The noise level was also a bit high, especially with the loud music at night.

Maria
I was amazed by the friendly and helpful staff at Balmers. They went above and beyond to make sure I had a comfortable stay. One specific situation that stood out to me was when I was placed in a ten bed dorm that was freezing even with the heat on. However, the staff kindly provided me with an extra blanket, which made it bearable. It's great to know that they are attentive to their guests' needs.
Despite one minor inconvenience of the cold dorm room, I would recommend Balmers to others for its friendly staff, great amenities like the hot tub, and the welcoming atmosphere. I had a pleasant stay at this hostel.
