It's clean and quiet. The staffs there are helpful, and when I send an email, there is always someone taking care to reply me. It's also very nice that the hotel provide facilities for us to cook and eat there, which makes me feel like at home. And what's more, there is also events held for visitors, it's really a fun place to meet people and party there.

Everything. Very nice hostel. Lovely stuff, which you COULD bother all day long. ;) There are (if you are lucky) private bath-rooms in the dorm rooms. Great. Breakfast not included, but quite cheap. Nice guests. Big kitchen. Little "shop" at the reception that has everything, you might have forgotten at home. Walking distance to city-center is circa 10 mins. Yep - just a very nice hostel. :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice rooms, quiet location. Had a tv in the common area with a good selection of dvds. Also had a number of books available to read. Probably one of the nicest hostels I've stayed in.
