Liked: check in anytime, the staff is knowledgeable about local places and happy to recommend, cheap beers and shots, had a big room, nice breakfast, offered bike rentals, free wifi in the bar, and the staff definitely went out of their way a couple times to help me out

Disliked: the location is a little odd. it's not on a main strip, and not exactly next to a metro station. it's near the student area with lots of bars and cheap food, but it's a bit far from downtown/oldtown. the bar is also pretty dead (but you shouldn't be stuck in your hostel anyway! get out there!)

Liked: Comfy beds, pillows and shower. Almost like a hotel.

Disliked: My bunk bed in the 8 dorm took some gymnastics to climb up as the ladder was partly blocked by lockers. Otherwise it was great.

Disliked: we followed the description that I have got by e-mail, but after we got off a tram we had to walk more than we expected. I think it was not 300m...

Liked: Loved the staff--so friendly and willing to help! The facilities are great and the big closets are good, as well.

Disliked: The TV in my room didn't work, and I had been looking forward to watching a lot of crap German TV. Bit of a long walk from the train with all my stuff. Also, I wish it didn't cost quite so much to wash a load of clothes. 5 Euro is a lot of money for such a small chore...

Liked: Beds and clean sheets were good. Key card access to front door at night and 24/7 for rooms. Reasonably well equiped kitchen and really friendly staff.

Disliked: Don't think it's particular good for single travellers, not much in the way of common areas. Free wifi area is very limited - but at least there is access.

Liked: Good location. Very close to public transport and only a few minutes walk to shopping and restaurants. Warm blankets and soft pillows.

Disliked: Beds are a little hard for my taste. Although I didn't go down there, allowing smoking after 10pm as the signs suggested would have annoyed me.
