Onze conclusie: 

Vrijwel alles is goed verzorgd. Alle reserveringen waren gemaakt. Het eten is overal prima. (Wel wat vaak rijst en macaroni) 
In onze periode (eind mei) waren we vaak de enigste gasten in het hostel. Pas tijdens Hemelvaart zaten de meesten hostels vol.
in het pakket zaten ook de laken pakketten, kaarten en toegangskaarten voor 3 kastelen.

Ook een aanrader
