Guest Rating
Good
Pros +
- Central location, good value, unexpectedly quiet, heating I could turn off
- Definitely the location, and cleanliness.
- great location very clean
Cons -
- Not really, it was just what I needed, somewhere to sleep
- Toilet paper was of extremely low quality and in low quantities. Check-in process was very slow due to a system problem. Taking into consideration it is a hostel, but could be better: private room had no TV, guests were very noisy until 1 am.
- large groups of extremely young kids 11 or 12
