    Great hostel in a good location. Very quiet so it's perfect for working (strong WiFi too). The free breakfast is very good, the facilities are clean, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The sister coffee shop/ bakery next door is also very convenient. I booked for two nights and extended for another two.

    Just little bit about our first breakfast because we were expecting good breakfast before we go for trekking but there’s only porridge. That’s it.

    The hostel is very clean, well organized and the staff are very accommodating especially Tariel, the manager.

    Nice and clean hostel. Very clean shared bathroom and showers. Lockers available. Hot water and water pressure was excellent. The dorm is small but it is good for solo traveller. Very good value for money, in a central location. Will stay here again.

    The receptionist, Zhenat (or Jenat) and her colleagues are super friendly. Hostel is located in prime location, walkable to many areas and option for great restaurants. I managed to get the room for myself as well. Room and bathroom layout are modern, fresh, and clean.

    A receptionist shown my room anyone at 5:30 a.m. when I had gone to bed at 4... I think there were another free room...I know they have right to do that but it is not necessary..:) almost every time problem to open the room door with card..

    Good value for money - I have been there alone in the room, luxurious hostel, feeling good and safe, super tasty restaurant for very affordable price

    It was clean and neat. Though the wall doesn’t keep the noise from the lounge, it is still quiet enough to fall asleep. Rooms are pretty small, but you have everything you need there. I can assure you the staff is really nice and willing to help you when needed.

    Unfortunately, there is no kitchen and the outer walls are not really soundproofed. So, if you are unlucky and get one of the rooms at the end of the hall and it’s a weekend, you might hear party people having fun.

    The hostel was one of the best we ever stayed in. It is quite new (opened in July 2023 I think) and has a good location to nearby cafes (even one on-site where you get a little discount if you stay here), supermarkets and it’s a little walk to the Square. We were welcomed by Tariel, who kindly showed us around and offered us his help with everything and was very attentive. We felt very homely immediately. The hostel is very bright, clean and spacious. The bathrooms are amazing and very stylish, while the rooms have everything you need.

    I spent two nights at AH, it was best place to stay in city center. Staffs (Tariel and his colleague) were extremely enthusiastic and helpful. There was a good small restaurant next door with discount for guests from the hostel.
