    Very good hostel with friendly and helpful staff. Located just in front of the main train station. Tasty breakfast with a good selection. Nice terrace available both for breakfast and during the whole day.

    I had to put the bed sheets when I arrived. Although this is rather common in hostels, this also applied to the single bedrooms and it is a bit annoying

    Location is right in front of the main station. The place is clean and has what you need for a short stay

    The 10 person bedroom needs to have a window open for fresh air, but then a lot of noise from the street enters the room. If you wear earplugs it's not a problem and anyways advised because of possible noise from other guests.

    Clean accomodation and very friendly staff. Delicious breakfast (8h-12h), no single use packaging waste. Metal lockers in the rooms. Lots of useful sightseeing advice (leaflets). Next to railway station, short walk to main attractions.

    I was a little concerned to wake up my fellow roommates every time I walked in because the door mechanism is a little loud. Also, the bathroom didn’t have any place to put down a change of clothes or more than a toothbrush, even though in a shared doom you’ll want to change in the bathroom. And I recommend being prepared for cleaning staff or a check up person walking into the room after 10am without knocking.

    I was exactly as I expected and looked like the photos. You can borrow a key for a locker in your room for free. I absolutely recommend it in the summer- they have a small seating place outside. The bed was surprisingly comfortable and everything felt clean. The bathroom was also well cleaned and you are allowed use another bathroom a little further away if the bathroom assigned to your room was already blocked. The shower is good and although it was strange at first to press the shower button every 15sec or so, it greatly contributes to saving water! The common area also looked very comfortable. Breakfast for a small fee and cooking area are available, though I didn’t use any of it.

    The lockers in the rooms are too narrow to be of much use, and they do not have a compost bin. The mattresses and pillows were also a little thin.

    The staff really make this place: they are friendly, they respond quickly to questions and concerns, and they care genuinely about the quality of guests' stay there; most of the warmth of my impression of the hostel is due to them. The location cannot be beat, the rooms have nice big windows, the kitchen has everything that you need (including ample recycling bins), and the common areas are nice. The breakfast, too, was good, and they clean the hostel thoroughly each day.

    Staff are great and helpful, very friendly. This hostel has great atmosphere for traveller to meet and provide travel info of the city and surrounding areas. A wonderful traveller community vibes . Perfect for solo travellers. And they hold concert, performance several times a week. Very lovely and active.

    Hostel met my expectation. Everything which you need. Room, showers, WC were clean and fresh. Bed was comfortable. Location is few minutes from Central Station. Windows looked into inner area, so it was calm and peaceful in the night. Other people who stayed in hostel were nice and polite.

    The staff could've made more of an effort to tell us a bit about the city, sights, must-see etc The breakfast, by the time I got there, there was very little left. Was it worth 7:50? I made do with what was there.

    We checked in without any problems and the staff member on-duty check us in without any problems We were then told where the room was and about the breakfast the next morning. We picked up a map from the hostel and that was sufficient as a guide. The room was a good size, clean and tidy, as was the bathroom.

    Not about the facility, but about the people i stayed with unfortunately.

    The location is very good. It’s so close to the main train station and center. Filled with very good cafes and restaurants. Close to the market.
