“ I loved how secure the place was. I'm glad that everyone after a certain hour needed to show their keycards. The only big down sides were the long distance to the bathrooms and the roaches in the kitchen. The construction was also pretty noisy, though thankfully we weren't on that side. ”

“ It is well managed. I have to say this hostel is impressive. It holds different events everyday, and trying to make different. ”

“ The only reason why it gets a pretty high score is the location and the staff.When you first come in it looks awesome but thats it,anywhere out of the lobby is a huge dissapointment.The reason why I picked it was sleep and with the heat that just wasnt possible.We had one fan in the room and it wasnt working,I was in the 4th flor,imagine the temperatures!The elevator was broken most of my stay and the Wi-Fi gives u a headache,new sever obviously isn't good!The staff is nice,liked the caffe. ”

“ The Hostel has a nice location for exploring the city by foot, bus or rail. The amenities are ok, not suburb, but there are plenty of big communal rooms. And the complimentary breakfast is a good chance to fuel up for the day. People were nice. All in all good. ”

“ Awesome place and staff! Only criticism I have is that the wifi is absolutely terrible( which is aggravating), the mens bathroom on the 1st floor smells like a portable toilet, and the room was way too small for 12 people. It smelled like the combination of sweat and dirty shoes, especially around bed time! ”

“ Quite good location, near to tram lines to the city centre. Very bad wifi, I haven't ever seen it working in five days I was there, and anyway as staff said it works just in the main room at the entrance, no wifi in rooms, just 4 working sockets in a 12 beds-dormitory, no sockets in bathrooms to shave or dry hairs, such a terrible warm at night in rooms that was almost impossible sleep. Good breakfast included, and helpful staff, nothing to complain about that. ”
