The hostel seemed quite pleasant to me, but the impression was greatly spoiled by goodbye
Liked: This is hostel is in a quiet neighborhood and close to the train station, which is great for travelers. It has a big dining area, fast and stable Wi-Fi, several showers and toilets on the floor, so I didn't have to wait to use them. Everything looks clean and quiet new.
Disliked: Keep in mind that if you have a late check-in or check-out (as I did), you might not get basics like a cup, plate, or spoon, but even much hospitality. I was there for a short stay between two night trips and was checking-out around midnight. I wanted to eat some instant porridge and coffee before leaving. I bought these thinking I could make them at the hostel. But the kitchen was closed. When I asked for a kettle to boil water, the person at the front desk said: "We are closed". That was confusing because I thought the kitchen in hostels is always open for guests to use. Interaction with the front desk felt unnecessarily hostile. It looked like he wanted to get me away as quickly as possible, reacting as if I had asked for a three-course meal immediately. It took a few minutes of uncomfortable talking before he finally agreed to pour hot water on my porridge. I didn't ask for hot water for my coffee to avoid additional conflict.

Comfortable, modern, good price
Liked: Great facilities
Disliked: The roommates! Way too noisy, but not the YHAs responsibility. Worth taking earplugs, in case
