Great position. Small but cozy hostel with spacious and quiet rooms. Well equipped kitchen. They were really quick at answering me on WhatsApp and I also had the chance to chat with them during my stay, really nice and friendly people. The lady even let me know about a once-a-year event that was happening in the days I was there. Would definitely come back!

Wow! This is a great property. It is super clean with wonderful facilities (including laundry, big kitchen, common areas). It was very nice to hang both in the room and the areas downstairs. Great location across from both the train and tram stops, and walking 10 minutes to Old Town. Walkable to bus and train station in less than 20.

I have booked a stay for my grandparents. They were really pleased with coziness, cleanness and professional attitude of the workers. I asked to meet them, because I was worried how would they find the room. They were met, and very pleasingly. Thank you. In absentia, recommend

This hostel was very spacious for being only 1 floor. The rooms were super clean and the people there were friendly (staff and guests). The breakfast was simple, and the beds were comfortable, plenty of sockets throughout the rooms so even if you stay with more people, you will be able to charge the things you need without feeling the pressure of hogging a socket. You get a key to the front door and to your locker as well so it felt like you were coming home as opposed to staying in a hostel. Plus the location is near the train station and the main square and that is perfect. I had a lot of fun here and I will be back in the future. (Also, they do have an iron)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I absolutely recommend Atlantis Hostel! Very helpful staff, excellent central location, absolute cleaness, safety (code locks), stylish design of the common space, excellent kitchen, and plenty of space, complimentary coffee, and tea. I stayed only one night in a dormitory but could well imagine to stay much longer. That is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed.

    One of the best hostels i’ve been. Very clean, big room, comfortable bed and pillow. Nice toilets with isolated shower cabin, hot water. And it couldn't be any cheaper. Girls at the receptions are very nice and the check in is super easy. And i have to add that they accepted some package on behalf of my name and kept it at the reception until i arrived. Im really thankful for that. I really recommend it.

    The hostel was in a perfect location with staff 24/7 always there to assist. As a solo traveler I felt safe and comfortable during my stay, I liked it so much that I even extended. A must try is also the bar crawl as it’s a great way to meet new people and have so much fun. I can’t wait for my next visit here thank you so much to all the staff.

A little bit away from the main square, but within walking distance. Pleasant staff and nice hostel communal areas. Luggage storage available. Would recommend for a short, cheap stay.
