Great Location!
We loved the amount of space we had for our family. The communication was great and they were very helpful. The environment was an older home, but it was well kept. The beds were not the most comfortable and although it was clean overall, seeing mouse traps although understandable, always make me concerned there is a problem.

A really special experience - felt like being part of a community - even though we were only there one night, and the only ones there - felt like a Goldilocks experience where everything g was "just right" - everything you need to get comfortable and really feel at home. Be back as soon as we can'.

Very cozy hostel in Kingfield which has a few private rooms as well as dorm areas on the third floor. Access to a full kitchen to prepare meals. Breakfast cereals available for the morning. Some minor communication challenges checking in as phone contacts kept getting terminated. However, eventually a connection was made. Private room that I reserved is spacious and very comfortable.
