The exterior was a bit run-down but fairly clean and fresh inside. Felt more like a room than the Hostel that it is. Would book again.

Great place to crash for the night! The beds were comfy with sinks in the room. The breakfast in the morning had the most options I've ever seen for a complimentary breakfast at any accomodations! 10/10 would recommend.

Gute Lage, freundlicher Empfang an der Rezeption. Wir wurden kostenlos upgegraded. Räumlichkeiten sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber alles sauber, ordentlich und bequem. Frühstücksbuffet war ausreichend und lecker.
