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.

- Avg. price/night: $207.80Scored out of 10, guest rating 7.8Good - What previous guests thought, 681 reviewsGorgeous Patio! Don't expect any breathtaking views, but expect a great patio to eat your lunch/breakfast and hang out with other guests! Hostel has quiet hours and is not generally a party hub. Guests were all very respectful. The hostel has a very strong college dormitory vibe to it. Making it easy to meet new people and make friends. Great for a solo traveler. The average age of guests was pretty well under 30, but there were some travelers over 30 as well. Free Breakfast on weekends!Guest review byTylerSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $120.92Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very Good - What previous guests thought, 10,094 reviewsThe staff was very nice and I could check in earlier because my bed was already ready. Everything is clean and spaceous. It' located in a safe area and the Hostel makes sure that only guests can enter. It's very cheap and you get a lot for the price! The WLan is working perfectely. They have a huge kitchen. There's a restaurant right next to the Hostel. The Hostel is located perfectly! There's a underground trainstation just around the corner. Very well done.Guest review byLauraSolo traveler

Room was decent, spacious, doble bed was enormous, bunk bed was decent, and even though bathrooms were old they were very clean and never too crowded. Bonus: towels are incredible here.Guest review byConstanzaGroup
