A brilliant, affordable stay

Liked: Great value for money. It felt very safe and welcoming. In an ideal location and the staff were very helpful and friendly.
Disliked: Only issues were the lights in the shower not working and the room was very stuffy - especially on a hot day.

Good

Liked: Very friendly staff, quiet location, nice entrance area with water bottle refill station. Beds also comfortable and already made which was nice.Luggage storage possible at all times.
Disliked: Unfortunately the sink in my room (private room) wouldn't drain, which I noticed after using it. The curtains could also use some cleaning as they had splatters of what I assume was toothpaste all over, plus the stool in the room was also covered in stains.

Disliked: Room was very hot, obviously to do with the weather and they did leave a fan but nonetheless it was almost unbearable with 3 people in one small room.

Great location!

Liked: All good! Possibility to eat on the terrace!The kitchen was big enough, well equipped,...The team was very nice. There is a room for luggages if you need some time to visit the city after checking out. You can park your car for free in some streets not far away!

A very good option. Strong...

Liked: Breakfast was very good. No bathroom in the rooms but there were many private bathrooms in each floor
Disliked: It was weird that for each top bed there was a big locker associated to it but for the bottom beds there was a much smaller locker located under the bed itself

A very nice hostel with...

Liked: A fine hostel - good beds, clean showers and a proper breakfast for a reasonable price. Staff was very friendly as well.
Disliked: There was no airconditioning in the room and there were only very small windows, so after a warm summer’s day the room wouldn’t really cool off. The temperature at night was way too hot unfortunately
