Amazing staff, the Argentinian guy of the reception helped me to buy a Flixbus ticket with his credit card and I paid him in cash (my credit card was not working). The facilities are very nice and clean. The bedroom had huge lockers and the bathroom was big (6 beds dorm). I felt very comfortable in this hostel... They gave me a banana when checking in 🍌👍

“Fantastic stay! ”
- • Leisure trip

The only minus I’d say was that I stayed in a 6 bed Female dorm and there was only 1 shower and toilet (in the same room) meaning I had to wait in the morning while some girls were washing their hair and stuff. In the corridor there was only 1 toilet which didn’t even have a sink where I could wash my hands! Would need at least 2 showers/toilets for a room that size I think.
The atmosphere was great, the beds were SUPER COMFY, and the curtains were so nice it was like having a private room, the double bed was simply so nice to have after so many nights of single bed hostels which were not so nice. The breakfast was great and the kitchen well equipped. A bar downstairs if you want a drink or order a meal. Movie lounge for hostel guests and great decorations.

My bed was missing one curtain and the staff didn't bother to fix it. There was a broken locker in our room and the girl had to keep her stuff in the bedroom floor. Also, i brought a padlock with me but the locker lock was so thick that you need to have a really big padlock to work. They do this on purpose to sell you a padlock for 5 eur.
The beds,the quiteness of the rooms. The breakfast is ok and not to expensive (7,50EUR).
