This hostel had their bedrooms split up into two properties, which were about a block apart. Because of the neighbourhood that the hostel was in, which was rundown and in a less-than-ideal part of town, it was a bit uncomfortable walking between the properties at night. That said, the atmosphere was very friendly and comfortable. (We loved the funky bohemian decor, too.) The staff were knowledgeable about the city, and we had a great time sitting around chatting with guests and staff ali

The hostel was amazing. I loved the pod-style beds and the fact that you got a little breakfast in the morning. The location was perfect and I would definitely go there again.

No public phone but computors are available. Rather dark but colourful. Show films in the evening on large screen.

It was good, friendly staff. Good value for money. Although it says on the website that some of the rooms are not on the main building, the website should say which rooms so you know in advance what to expect when you make a reservation. Should have a sign or something on the door of the additional building because late in the evening it is a bit tricky to find.

Nice and well organized hostel. I enjoyed the big screen! Very close to the bus station (what was good coz I had lots of luggage) and in walking distance to downtown. No complaints!

A very nice hostel located 10 minutes from the city centre. Only "thumbs down" is that even though the hostel is near the centre it was located in an industrial area which can seem a bit frightening at night. I slept in the annex to the main building and it was nice and clean. In their main building you could play video games or watch tons of movies, read books or play board games. They were vey nicely sorted out on the social activities inside. I didn't use the kitchen but it looked roomy
