    Apartment is dowdy and old, could do with brightening up, lighting was poor. Like a student flat- but it is a hostel!!

    Katrina in reception was excellent - very friendly and helpful. Hostel is very close to the railway station , a supermarket, and town hall square. We were able to bring our bicycles in and lock them under the stairs which was great.Heating good.. Enjoyed our stay here.

    Beds were squeaking every time you moved. I personally think the room itself could be redesigned, as there was illogical room planning.

    Liked the location, very friendly staff, interesting interior. The check-in and -out process was easy and comfortable. Got a parking space just under my room window, which was nice. There was sufficient equipment in the kitchen.

    In the middle of March it was a little cold at the beginning, but there was extra heater so after all it was comfortable.

    It was cosy, had all the necessary stuff and was close to the city centre.

    People. Even though it's written everywhere that the quiet hours start after 23, there was someone watching movie withiut headphones, someone talkibg on the phone, someone turned on the lights in the whole room. But none of that has to do with the hostel though.

    Very welcoming and friendly staff. Clean and nice facilities. Cozy living room

    I don’t think there were any lockers for your personal belongings (in a, if I remember correctly, 16 bedroom dorm)

    The vibe was amazing as well as the staff! Very comfortable!

    The dorm room doors don’t lock, so people come and go all night and just leave the door wide open. This is a bit annoying if you’re trying to sleep, because you have to keep getting up to close the door. Not a big deal though.

    Staff were lovely, the bathrooms were very clean. Location was perfect.

    The room was cozy and clean but there were too many beds. The beds were a bit less comfy and there wasn't enough storage space. But overal I enjoyed the place.

    It was a lovely, lively and cozy place. I enjoyed the good vibe, and I liked the lovely terracce where you could just chilled out or have some food. It's located walking distance from the statation and the old town.

    The hostel has specified quiet hours. Everyone is very respectfully quiet if they come in after them. The balcony is very cozy. There is a coded access if you come in after the registration desk leaves. A very homey atmosphere and very nice details everywhere

    They have lockers but it is the type where they need to give you a key, you can’t use your own padlock. I asked for a key and they said there weren’t any as they’d all been lost.

    Good location and a really nice chilled vibe. Staff were friendly and helpful and towels available to rent for just €1. The sustainability side of the hostel is really nice and they recycle everything.

    Toilets and shower area isn't the most comfortable one, specially for the tall people. Also I prefer a bit more privacy.

    Location was good and staff was very friendly and helpful. They had everything what you need in the kitchen. The terrace area I loved most, cosy and comfortable with some sun and fresh air.

    Quiet stay close to the train station

    The code for entering after 10 pm is changed often. This makes sense and I don't have any problem with that. But one day I was informed of the new code only because I happened to stay until lateish in the afternoon in the terrace. Had my plan been to leave early and return late at night that day, I wouldn't have known of the new code, which would have been quite bothersome.

    The terrace is quite nice. There were not that many people staying at the hostel at the time, so it was rather peaceful. It was not too far away from the city center by foot, and it's very close to TYPA.
