My first time at a hostel and I was expecting the worst, but my only complaint was a few drunken roommates, which had nothing to do with the place. Recommend it for future stays. ##### Teri Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alexander 16 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities This was my first stay at a hostel but it will almost for sure be my last. My room had four beds (2 bunk beds). When I first walked in at midnight I noticed that it would be impossible to put my suitcase and backpack in the cage under the bed because it was already taken. It was also not possible to turn on the light because there were already three other men sleeping. I had to just put my suitcase and backpack on the table and chair next to the bed since there was no other room and I had to hope and pray that nobody took anything which Thank God they didn’t. There was no toilet paper visible and somebody had used the toilet without flushing it so that was disgusting in the middle of the night. The room was also right above the extremely noisy street even at 2 AM. I barely slept a moment. The breakfast was just toast and cereal flakes. The suitcase lockers were very nice expensive for only six hours. There were no towels in the room. The staff did seem friendly, however. ##### Alexander Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jaime 28 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Helpful staff, great location, accommodating to my arrival and departure time!
