Pleasant

Exceptional

hot summer

Liked: Good location and very reasonable accommodation fees
Disliked: It’s a party because this hotel is in a convenient location, but it’s just so noisy outside.

Disappointing

Liked: Staff kindness
Disliked: Facilities, room, no functionning A/C, uncomfortable bedding, no towels (you have to rent one for 3€)

Don't be afraid of the...

Liked: It was exactly as the picture shows. We didn't need much, since we only wanted a place to sleep, so the room met our expectations. The breakfast was decent. Everything was clean. It was a good experience for how much we wanted to pay.
Disliked: It was noisy since we got a room with a window to the street and we had to close the window because of that, but then the room would be extremely hot and the ventilator didn't work, so we had to compromise one or the other every night.

Wouldn’t stay there again.

Disliked: Stains on the carpet, bed was uncomfortable, two very small single mattresses that moved around so want really a double. Really shit place for the price.

Superb

Liked: It was big, clean and very comfortable
Disliked: It was separate from the main property although it was only a block away. There were bars in the area and it got pretty loud late at night.

Decent but the rule of...

Liked: Always cleaned. Free breakfast and coffee. Close to bus stop and metro. Plenty of places to eat.
Disliked: The rule of needing to leave the hostel from 11-3pm is unnecessary and a hassle. It should be optional because i always kept my room clean. And sometimes i want to sleep in or work in my room but I can’t.

never coming back

Liked: - the location is great, near by the city center, subway and bus stations
Disliked: don't even know where to start:- the staff is EXTREMELY RUDE- there is no safety/privacy during "cleaning hours" the staff will enter your room and will press you to leave the hostel (every single day)- the breakfast is terrible, is a bread, a small cake, butter and jelly thrown in the tray without even a plate;- they have two buildings and one is supposed to be for teenagers, so they are not supposed to have guest over 30, but they do;- you need to ALWAYS return the key in the reception, so they expect you to leave your key in the desk in the open even if there is nobody in the reception, otherwise the staff will "hunt you down" if they see you leaving or entering holding the key;
