Fine stay in perfect location! Lovely building with excellent roof terrace and shared lounge area. Stayed in a double room and besides a slight drainage smell and glitchy TV remote all was great. Walked from the bus station and to the ferry terminal with backpacks no probs!
I thought this hostel was a great deal is a great location! I also liked that I had the option to have a private room and bathroom. My only complaints are the noise late into the night from the people on the balcony next door and the fact that the sheets smelled a little musty. The staff was great!
I haven’t stayed in a hostel down for about 20 years, but had no choice due to everything else sold out (New Year’s eve) and I have to say that I was very pleasantly surprised !
It was clean, good security (private locker), good privacy (privacy curtain) and seems to attract a good standard of guest.
I would actually stay again without hesitation.
Desconozco si se aceptan mascotas, mas no habían huéspedes que tuvieran.
La piscina estaba sucia ya que me comentaron que no funcionaba el equipo para filtrar. Lo arreglaron casi al final de mi estadía. No se aviso eso previo a mi reserva. La habitación se limpiaba a diario, aunque el baño enseguida emanaba un poco de olor a pis. Eso se podría arreglar fácilmente con algún desodorante. Sector cocina, faltaba limpieza en la heladera de uso común.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Quarto limpo, mas áreas comuns com aspecto sujo e mal cuidado. Café da manhã pago à parte, mas muito pobre, só o basico, não vale a pena o valor gasto por ele. Hostel bem localizado, muito perto das principais atrações, é possivel fazer tudo à pé.
Ótima localização, bem no centrinho de Colônia, uma simpatia só dos atendentes.
Local simples com acomodações bem arejadas e locais de convivência bem amplo.
Super recomendo
Me encanto el Hostel, desde la ubicación que estaba céntrica, la habitación que me toco estaba súper bien y muy limpia, el ambiente es muy lindo y la vista que tiene hacía la plaza es hermosa, sin pensarlo volvería a hospedarle
