It was really nice hostel close to the city center. Receptionist was really helpful. I had great stay there.

Perfect location, paced in the city centre. Nice and clean room. Good cleaning service. Bedsetting changed after every guest.

I really loved the localization and the super friendly and helpful stuff. The place was clean and nice.

The location is fantastic, right on the main street in the old town, A short stroll from the seafront and cablecar. We booked an en suite double room. It was 5 star, with a stand alone bath and super king sized bed. You could not believe that this was a room in a hostel. The staff were exceptional, helpful, cheerful and knowledgeable.
