Staff are sound, it’s a great location and with the coffee shops closed the smoking room is really useful!

Clean, Fairly priced, Flying Pig Downtown never fails to deliver. Great atmosphere, even better people, cant eait to come back soon!

It was a perfect 1-night stay. Very clear, nice staff, cosy smoking area, free coffee in the morning 👌 I was sleeping with only 1 roommate in the space, he was very polite (didn't switch on the light in the night, slept quiet and didn't make the noise) 😉👍

Everything! The staff were super friendly and helpful, the rooms were great and clean and the location was perfect! Very social place and made loads of great friends here :)

Perfect location to everything and really good value for money. All staff were so lovely and helpful and was super easy to make friends as a solo traveller. Room was clean and comfy :)

In the middle of everything, 5 min from train station. Staff was awesome! Came in Corona time, so it was pretty cheap. Good happy hours. I took king size bed, feels like for 1.5 person, very comfortable.

Everything was nice and clean. The bar was cool. The room was perfect!

Excellent location, a friendly staff and very comfortable beds

The location is the best thing about this hostel, it's in the centre so it was perfect. The price is good according to the average. The room structure was good, as well as the bathroom. I think that they were clean in general. I liked that the room was sound and light proof so I slept well all nights. The kitchen is well equiped. I also liked the social areas, they were comfortable and cool to hang out.

You are doing a great job, guys! I especially liked the chill out area and the smoking room, you have it all :)
