Very happy about my stay. The staff was very welcoming, responsive and professional. I had regular chats with 3 of them and all seem very friendly and well educated. They do care about their visitors as if you were in a four stars hotel. Congrats to the whole team. The amenities are all new and all facilities are kept very clean every day. The cabin was comfy and the location is absolutely perfect. Whilst it is located in the heart of the city, it is very well isolated from the noise in the street. I slept very well. This was over all very good value for money and I would definitely come back here on my next trip.

O hostel é novo, bem estruturado e oferece boas instalações. O café da manhã é bom, a cama é confortável e os pods proporcionam uma boa sensação de privacidade. O único ponto negativo foi a localização do quarto, que ficava de frente para a rua, onde havia muitas pessoas conversando durante a madrugada, o que acabou causando bastante barulho.
