Everyone working was so nice and helpful. I stayed in a room with 3 sets of bunk beds and it was clean (other than the 5 people already there) and the bed was comfy. I slept great! Loved the vibe of the place and the people staying there. Would stay again!

Hostel

This is a hostel more than a hotel. No room service or even basics in the room like a hot water kettle. No daily housekeeping. Very small room, no closet. Probably good for young travellers but not recommended for older people or families. Great location though.

Ideal location and good for solo females!

Travelled as a solo female and just stayed for one night in a female-only 6 person shared dorm - you have to make your own bed on arrival which was a little tricky on the top bunk but manageable. Each bunk had a curtain for privacy, a personal light and plug socket and there was a large locker for each person in the dorm (bring your own padlock). Check-in was easy, use the touch screen computer in the lobby, check-out was even easier as you just leave your keycard in a box on reception. Had to queue a bit for the lift at busier times but not a big deal. Absolutely ideal location, really central but juuuust set back enough to not have loads of noise at night - will definitely stay here again!

Keep in mind, it’s not a hotel. They won’t store your luggage for you. You pay 5 euros for a locker for four hours. We needed two. The private room has no chairs or tables. The sheet on one of the bunk beds was dirty. It was a bit industrial/military looking. Regarding “staff,” you check yourself in on a kiosk. You create your own keys. The elevators are a bit of an issue because there is only two and at checkout, they’re so busy that you have to wait for a long time to fit your bags in. I’m not sure how it got such an Expedia rating. We’ll see if they accept this review.
