Ecuador
The location is amazing, just some blocks away from the center and the main train station. We could walk everywhere. In the night gets really creepy and weird but I never felt unsafe, and we were 2 girls. Just don't mind the crazy people and keep walking (crazy people are everywhere) The rooms are big and clean everyday. We didnt have any problems of being dirty. We had our own bathroom, wich are super small and smells funny but for some days is okay. There is a general bathroom per floor so you can use that (is bigger). I love that there is a place to work and chill on the first floor. We had to catch a train really late, so we stayed there warm and safe, with internet. I really appreciate that. There is a small cafeteria in the lobby and a bar next door. That is nice if you just want to chill. The prices are really good for the average. You can pay extra and do a check late, which is amazing If you are leaving late. The pillows and sheet where really nice quality made. I loved it.

United Kingdom
I was really surprised by how nice every aspect of the accommodation was. Already made beds, our own bathroom and shower, and hand/body wash/towels provided. Was basically a hotel but for way cheaper. I’m used to staying in youth hostels which are not nearly as cozy or well stocked so this was a very pleasant surprise. All the staff were very helpful too with anything we asked them.

The location was perfect. Rooms and beds were clean. Moreover, I didn't hear even a single squeak from the bunk bed. Breakfast was extraordinary. I have never seen so many varieties for breakfast in any youth hostel before. There were sockets even in the lockers. No need for padlock. There was combination on lockers. No deposite for the key cards. Definetely everything was so perfect.

Big dormitory. A lot of space to put your belongings. Natural light. Nice cleaning. No noise. Great kitchen to cook in, but you need to bring dishwashing products and a sponge to wash your plates and stuff... The location might be 10 minutes by train from the city centre, but you have everything you need nearby the hostel. From a huge supermarket with great and cheap meal options, to pharmacies and restaurants

This place is good for a few nights if you are on a budget. Despite being a youth hostel, it is clean. Regarding noise, it really depends on the other guests you will be with. For me, it was a bit loud late in the evening over the weekend, but ther other days were fine. It is a 10-minutes-walk away from a U-Bahn station from which you can reach the city center in about half an hour. All in all, my stay was pleasant.

I really enjoyed the fact that despite being a youth hostel, you can still find privacy in the rooms. Indeed, each bed has its own facilities (tv, light, remote control, table, closet) and lockers are accessible at no extra cost! I felt so safe there!

One of the best hostels i have stayed at, has a great location and great value for money. The staff was helpful, cool and friendly. The hostel seems new and is in a great shape. The hallways remind me of a hotel with thick carpets, cool walls and lovely fragrance. The room furnishing seems new, nothing cracks, everything works, beds are great and the pillow and the cover are not thin and tiny, but very big "meaty" hotelish. I am planning to stay here again.
