The downstairs lobby/hangout/bar area was quite nice and great for meeting people. Bed was comfy and very private with the curtain and pod-like structure! Lockers with pin-code locks were convenient as I didn’t have a padlock with me.

Elizabeth United States of America

The bed was very comfy and the breakfast very good! Very good located and very easy to access all the city. Staff was very nice! Amazing design since the lobby till the room.

Was everything I needed! Beds were super comfortable. I prefer the pods to traditional hostel set ups. Great centralized location, for an amazing price.
