I really enjoyed my two night stay at this hostel. The team at reception were really helpful and friendly. The place opened in August 2024 to at least 4* hotel level. Great cafe and bar on ground floor. The location is very central in the old town and directly opposite Vets concert venue. Provides- Bedding Towel Soap/shower gel Keypad locker I had a great night's sleep in the very comfortable bed. The bathroom and shower rooms were to an excellent standard. I would fully recommend if in Groningen

Ik vond de locatie prima. Bed en bed- en badinnen schoon. Handig in de kluis. Het was niet stil, jonge mensen komen in de nacht binnen en praten ongemerkt toch. Niet luid, maar voor ons toch hinderlijk.

Ideal für Reisende, die keine Erfahrung mit "Mehrbettzimmern" haben. Ich hatte die auch nicht und habe mich wegen der "Cocoons" sehr wohlgefühlt. Alles super sauber, mitten in der Stadt. Besser gehts nicht.
