Fine for very short term
Pros:

Location was great and there was a lovely shared communal area.
Shower was hot and bathroom was spacious

Cons:

Bed privacy was very rustic and uncomfortable and not very well considered. Rooms felt stuffy and no space for belongings at all. I had peoples bags and dirty laundry stacked on top of mine because there was no space. There was also no where to leave luggage pre check-in and post check out, which is very inconvenient for travelling. Its a chill hostel so not great for socialising so book that in mind if you are solo.

Invasion de fourmis volantes et propriétaire désagréable.
Pros:

La jeune fille argentine qui est sûrement là en volontariat et qui fait très bien son travail !

Cons:

La propriétaire est hautaine, dès le premier jour ses réponses étaient hautaines et condescendantes. De plus nous avons eût une invasion de centaines de fourmis volantes (due à la tempête de la veille) et j'ai appelé la propriétaire qui était super désagréable au téléphone et disait que c'était un phénomène naturel (certe) mais ne proposait aucunes solutions car la jeune fille argentine n'était pas présente (et elle-même ne souhaitant sûrement pas gérer cela) et donc une autre cliente a dû aller acheter du produit et j'ai du pulvériser le produit moi-même.
(Voir photos ci-jointes).
Heureusement la jeune fille qui travaille la et arrivée et à fait le nettoyage (que je m'apprêtais à commencer car dormir la était impossible).

J'ai travaillé en hôtellerie et j'ai beaucoup voyagé et ceci n'est pas une façon de gérer un problème aussi gros avec vos clients.

Dreamlike, Peaceful and Natural Place ✨
Pros:

A dreamlike place! I was longing for peace and nature, and my expectations were exceeded! You find yourself surrounded by nature with a great variety of plants. It’s also perfect for anyone who needs to work on the side during their stay. I was welcomed very warmly and immediately extended my stay for three more days. The host responds quickly and effortlessly to any needs. The house feels more like a shared home than a hostel, which gives it an even more comfortable living atmosphere. The shared bathroom is spacious, and the kitchen is great for preparing meals.

There is a long staircase leading up to the house — very beautiful, as it takes you right into nature — but people with limited mobility should keep this in mind. The host has put a lot of work and love into the accommodation. I would definitely book again! It was also very clean, and everything was cleaned daily!
