Reviews

  • Sam from Ireland (8/10)

    Great location, clean facilities, perfect for what we were looking for!

  • Meike from Germany (8/10)

    This place is really stylishly furnished and the staff is very welcoming. There is plenty of room to socialise and the rooms are very spacious. The bathroom was clean and the showers very comfortable. It’s located only 10mins walk to the supermarket and 5mins to public transport. I really appreciated the storage right by the bed even though I hit me knees quite a few times on the edge of the shelf.

  • Faria from Australia (8/10)

    Bedroom was very cleaned

  • Jennifer from Australia (7/10)

    I loved our room and the location and the stay are super friendly

  • Jade from United Kingdom (8/10)

    We stayed in the private room and the bed was extremely comfortable. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. The book exchange shelves were fully stocked and had lots of great books on them (my favourite part of hostels). The bar has happy hour 5-7pm with really cheap pints.

  • Jens from Germany (7/10)

    Spacious shared rooms and a lot of acitivities to offer, curtains at the beds for privacy

  • Kim from Australia (8/10)

    The rooms were lovely, exceeded our expectations! We are a couple in our 50’s and didn’t feel out of place here. Check in/out was easy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Despite being in a busy area the room was very quiet. We were very happy we could bring our little dog. Great little cafe downstairs.

  • Bourgy from France (8/10)

    The bunk beds have way more quality than bunk beds in other hostels : it moves slightly when the person above/below moves but not dramatically like other cheap beds.
    The lively places are not on the same floor as the bedrooms, so we dont hear too much of the bar or the living room franzy.
    The bathrooms were okay : I appreciated the female only bathrooms at both ends of the hallway.
    I bumped into the pilates class on the rooftop and joined : the workout was really thorough, I loved it !
    The reception hosts were all very friendly and helpful, thank you again !
    The bracelet/card is a really good idea too.

  • Jay from France (7/10)

    Nice place

  • Jordan from United Kingdom (7/10)

    Great location , room was pretty clean and a good size .
