"The hostel was an oasis in an otherwise rough area. They offered a free pancake night, which was great. And the hostel itself was clean & modern."

Liked: Lots of chance to meet people with bbqs and bar area, great atmosphere. Friendly and helpful staff. Great facilities, lots of common room space with tv. 24 hour bar was amazing, location wasn't a problem, the red light district was not very and at all, was close to everything good to see and to train station no need for trams or buses etc. Amazing hostel!

Disliked: Nothing at all

Liked: The room was great, nice bathroom&shower, felt like staying in hotel! Breakfast was nice. Staff spoke good english and was really helpful. Hostel was really close to the railway station!

Disliked: The Five Elements sign at the door was hard to spot, because it was already dark when we arrived. Location (red light district) was maybe just a little disturbing, but didn't bother us much really - we felt safe all the time.
