Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hostel was clean and comfy. It’s a 15 minutes tram ride to city centre which is very convenient and there are CCTV/lockers available so it’s very safe too. Only issue seems to be that you share 2 showers amongst I’d imagine ~30 people when the hostel is fully booked. That said, would highly recommend and the stay was very nice!

This was a great hostel. Staff was very friendly and parking is next door. Unfortunately, it is in a very loud area. No problem of the hostel, but there was talking and music until 4:30 am in the surrounding area both nights of our stay.
