The price was way too high for how dirty and old it was. The place was extremely smelly and underconstruction. Our hotel staff gave us a room that was not cleaned and still has previous guest's trash in it

Pros: Cosy place, friendly staff, super close to subway, bus and tram stations, and all tourist attractions are just a ride away! Cons: creaky floors. Light sleepers should pack ear plugs Would definitely recommend this place!!

Great location, close to tram and trains [S and U]
Staff very helpful and the hostel is bright and clean with modern decor and plenty of shared showers etc. Nice kitchen and communal rooms; only down side is they are closed when Reception is, ie btw 10.pm and 8 am, so you cannot get late night or early morning access to kitchen area. There are plenty of bars and cafes and all night shops nearby, but that does reduce the 'hostel' experience to simply a place to sleep. My single room was spacious with a comfortable bed and basic furniture. Very good quality for the price and I enjoyed my stay.
