    The location of the hostel was ideal, close to the water and easy to find on Google Maps. The staff at check-in were pleasant and helpful. The room was very clean and the linen provided was also fresh and clean. The power outlets in the room were in good working condition, making it easy to charge all my devices. The Wifi connection was strong throughout my stay. I appreciated the availability of multiple clean bathrooms, with plenty of hot water and excellent water pressure. The kitchen was decently sized and well-equipped with all the utensils and cookware I needed. The dining room was also spacious enough to comfortably enjoy my meals. Lastly, I loved the selection of reading materials available in the lounge.

    One aspect that I found inconvenient was the bright hallway light outside my room. Every time someone went in and out during the night, the light would shine into my room, making it difficult to sleep.

    The food was absolutely amazing! I had meals that I had never heard of and they're now my favorite dishes. the beds are really comfortable and the cafe is really cozy and nice to hang out. the staff is the sweetest, very helpful, and they'll do everything to meet your needs. the common space was so cozy looking and the well, equipped kitchen was a bonus. the hostel is located in a safe and quiet area near the water, easy to find on Google Maps. the room I stayed in was very clean, with good power outlets and decent Wifi. the bathrooms had plenty of hot water and excellent water pressure. the hostel also had a decent, sized dining room and plenty of clean reading materials in the lounge.

    There were some difficulties following the "self, check, in" directions. Luckily, another traveler was inside and let me in.

    The hostel had a really cool and funky vibe, with a bar that was surprisingly awesome. The lounge area was comfortable and had plenty of entertainment options. We stayed in a private family room which was a great option for us, especially since the staff and other guests were so accommodating to our kids. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with plenty of showers and restrooms available. The best part was the breakfast - it was delicious and the cappuccinos were a real treat!

    That there were a few things that could be improved. The shower area could use more hooks and shelves to make it easier to manage towels and toiletries.

    We were impressed by the funky vintage decor and cool music played in the bar at Tehusith. The spacious work desks were a bonus for us as we needed to get some work done. The bathrooms and toilets were always clean and well-maintained. We also appreciated their eco-friendly initiatives. The rooms looked newly renovated and spotlessly clean, and we had a great night's sleep in the comfortable beds. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Tehusith.

    We found a convenient location, with supermarkets and a bakery nearby. the shared toilets and showers were clean, and the 16, bed rooms were comfortable, with curtains, plugs, and individual lights. the common area had board games, and the lively bar offered a variety of food and drinks, including gluten, free beer on tap.

    The self, check, in directions were a bit confusing, causing some difficulties for us.
