We stayed at the hostel for 3 nights in a double bed room. First, we had a lot of mold in the bathroom and had to insist on changing the room. The room was very small (no space for any luggage) and it was very, very hot, eventhough it was fresh during the night. You cannot leave the window open to sleep to cool the room down because people are walking next to the windows on all the floors (the window is next to the door). There is no soap for washing the hands and no hand towel. The kitchen is very small, the towels and sponge was very dirty and after asking for a new one they said gave us another dirty one. We had nice welcome drinks and and the hostel is in a nice location and there is public transport to the center.
Sadly the locks on the lockers inside the room were broken, other than that one of the better hostel I've stayed at. Clean, nice beds, spacious. I've stayed with my bicycle and could lock it on the balcony in front of my room which was a big plus! Also the bar on the ground floor serves breakfast deals and a lunch option for a very fair price.
We chose this hotel because we were travelling with our pets and were pleased to find it welcoming and accommodating in that respect. The hotel has a strong eco-friendly ethos and a modern, contemporary vibe. First impressions were positive — it’s clean, stylish, and offers excellent value for money. The clientele is mainly younger guests, which gave it a lively feel during the day, though it was pleasantly quiet at night. Our only drawback was the compact size of the room. It became a little stuffy overnight due to limited ventilation, which made it slightly uncomfortable. The dark grey wall colour, while modern, made the room feel smaller than it was. We also noticed there were no cups provided in the room and no soap at the hand basin, which was a little inconvenient. Overall, it’s a clean, modern, budget-friendly option — particularly convenient if you’re travelling with pets.
