10 July 2011

Liked: I liked the staff, they're nice, but nothing more...maybe the location of the hostel, convenient for me...

Disliked: The building is quite ugly (from the inside and the outside) and the atmosphere is rather poor ... An hostel is generally intended to welcome youngsters (meaning, old teenagers or young adults) but this one welcomes any body at any age (including an old woman in her late 60's pissing me off in my dorm)... I had to change my room in the middle of the week...(and the new one was not as comfortable as the previous) The bathroom was not well designed : water spreads inevitably from the shower to the floor, the ventilation was no efficient enough so there was always a lot of humidity in the bathroom.... There was 1 (yes, only one) power plug in my room (a dorm of 8 persons...) making it difficult to charge my phone during the night... The beds and mattresses are from poor quality so it was not comfortable at all, the curtains are too thin so the sunlight could light the dorm as soon as it rised up (that is to say 4-5am in July)... The Wi-Fi was not working very well and the internet connection was quite slow... No free services were provided by the hostel/staff (except for the breakfast) and every single thing was in extra... And some many unsignificant things (but becoming significant when added up)

08 July 2011 Ian would recommend this property

Liked: This is the cleanest and friendliest hostel I have been to. The staff were helpful and spoke many languages. The hostel is only walking distance from the main sights, bars and gig venues and is close to a number of late night take aways and shops. Also liked that there was no deposit for a locker or padlock, you simply buy a padlock at reception for 3 Euros to use on a locker in your room

Disliked: Nothing

29 June 2011 Maria Jimena would recommend this property

25 June 2011 Ksenia would recommend this property

Liked: Nice hostel with very good stuff in a great area pretty close to subway.

Disliked: A noise of construction @7 am.

21 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Breakfast was really good. Staff were kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. The hostel had a nice common area (with a bar and television) where it was easy to meet people.

Disliked: The hostel was sort of far away from the city center...but it was nice to have a metro stop close by. I stayed in a 6-bed dorm, which was fairly comfortable, but this meant that I had to use the communal women's bathroom/showers. The bathroom was not very clean and it smelled bad.

09 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Well, the atmosphere of the hostel it self and outside area was very interesting and good for visiting new people, but it should be noticed that its a little far from the sights and you have to use the local transports. It was clean, the bathrooms and showers! Breakfast was complete buffet with lots of variety.

Disliked: the location was a little far from sights and you couldn't get there by walk. also the bunk beds were very noisy and unstable! I think they should definitely change the beds.

09 June 2011 Hao would recommend this property

Liked: very good, every thing is perfect, we spend 12 euro per person to live in a 6-bed room and the free breakfast is very very good, I can never imagine such a good place can be booked in such a low price.

Disliked: nothing is bad, everything is amazing

05 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: good location, right near metro stop, 24 hours, relatively clean, secure

Disliked: no atmosphere, not really a 'youth' hostel, no socialising or young people around looking to meet others, so wouldnt be a good hostel for solo travellers, lots of big groups travelling together

02 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: good location, cheap

Disliked: uncomfortable bunk bed

Liked: Staff was very accommodating to our travel plans and were willing to be flexible, which was much appreciated. Great location - right next to the metro on a pretty centrally connected line.

Disliked: Not much.

24 May 2011 Melanie would recommend this property

Liked: It was RIGHT THERE as soon as I got out of the metro station; so thankful for that! It has a nice lounge area with a nice atmosphere. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Oh and free breakfast... Amazing! Lots to choose from and it was always fully stocked and lasted for a good chunk of the morning.

Disliked: Shower situation was not ideal. Also had a shower in our room but the drainage system didn't work well so bathroom would always flood. Also, hostel was filled with many noisy school groups (young teenagers) so it wasn't always as relaxing as it should have been.
