What Guests Say About Their Stay

The staff is very nice and helpful. They work hard to keep the place clean. However, some guests were not very respectful in the shared areas (dirty dishes on the counter for hours, very loud music, toilet paper everywhere in the shared bathrooms). The bed was very confortable and I was glad to have access to a big locker. The hostel is perfectly situated to easily go everywhere on foot or by bus/tram/train. I would highly recommend this place to solo travellers.

The staff were wonderful, it’s in a great location, and it was probably the comfiest bed I’ve had in a hostel. Would definitely stay again!

Very comfortable. Age range higher than usual for backpackers, so not rowdy. Lots of books, board games, guitars(!) available for self entertainment. I am 81 year old female, and will certainly go back.

너무 소음이 많아서 잠을 잘수가 없엇어요. 건물 자체의 하자같고 새벽에 이상한 소음 때문에 잠에 계속 깨고 잠에 들수없었어요.

I always take negative reviews with a pinch of salt but definitely should’ve listened to the ones for this place. The first time I’ve ever checked out of a hostel early due to its condition. In dire need of refurbishment, beds are creaky, bathroom is dingy. Only one common room/kitchen which had a TV on all day so nowhere to get a bit of peace and quiet - I also had some remote work to do which was impossible here. Final straw was seeing a couple of cockroaches in the common room. I had a week booked but left after one night. Hotels.com tried to request a partial refund for the unused nights but the hostel manager refused it. Extremely unimpressed, wish I’d never booked it.

I can’t open the window, it is suffocating. And the ventilation isn’t that good. Use room spray for better smell in the room whenever the guests are entering. Thanks.
