It is small, it is cozy great. The train station accross the street, the instructions for the airports, the baskets under the beds for immediate luggage simply genius. A hostel is a hostel and sharing spaces requires patience and tolerance always although it was always full, they somehow make it work to have a great experience. Maybe, include something about alarms and unattended phones because whenever they ring in the baskets they wake up others. Not a compllain but something to consider

Not a very good experience. I got BED BUGS bites all over my body on my first night there! It's been almost 2 weeks I was there and the bites are still on me!! It's just terrible! And on top of that, the room had 18 beds and seemed like people were living there for a while (also, lots of snoring and I couldn't sleep so there's that too). It's also far from the center so it takes a lot of time to get around the city. Also you have to pay breakfast apart, which is not very convenient. Would NOT recommend this hostel and will not stay there again. Don't stay here! Plugs didn't work so if you need to recharge your phone, forget it

the place is too far from the city... at the end you will end up paying lots of money for the transfer - just stay close to the city paying a bit more. I've paid for a private room but there were so much noise that seemed that the whole hostel was sharing my room... they do the cleaning during the night and early morning so you will never rest. my stay here was ridiculous. couldn't get refund so had to stay for 5 nights. Look for better places near to the city.
