atmosphere, stuff always willing to help, clean, good taste on details.

Claudia United States of America

Cozy common space, friendly staff, great location in the city center.

Qi China

The staff was friendly; the location is a short walk to the city center. The value to stay close was excellent, and the facility was clean.

Christopher United States of America

- so comfortable and super cool hangout areas - nice and spacious kitchen - the kindest staff!!

V Germany

Because then I'd just never leave! Always a great stay here - communal feel, friendly staff, open area with kitchen, chilled out policies, and a location it's easy to bike from (and awesome bikes).

Ashwin Portugal

The staff was absolutely amazing. I am Chilean and they could find so much topics about my country, leading to a very good conversation. Hope to go back some day! It was also very clean and comfortable.

Benjamin Chile

Nothing perfect but nothing bad. It was quite good. :-) I was in the room for women only and there were older equipment, but nothing horrible. Just normal hostel. I liked the lobby and kitchen so much.

Nicole Czech Republic

Really nice staff, great that it's eco-friendly, nice common area, and an easy check-in/check-out process, plus good quality bikes for rent.

Ashwin Portugal

Super helpful staff, central location, cozy room and comfy bed. My room was river view, I saw ducks and swans everyday, good for relaxing and meditation. The kitchen is fully equipped, convenient for cooking. The hostel is very clean overall. It’s kinda eco-friendly since the light bulb and toilet paper hanger are recycled. Price is excellent for such quality. Highly recommend.

Vu Vietnam

I liked free food offered to the visitors, spacious rooms, friendly staff, clean facilities, location close to the center.

And the same goes for the larger suitcases we will have, is there a safe space to leave them unattended for day where no one else can access them?
