21 March 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: location

Disliked: meh, the "breakfast" was a joke, "free pizza slices" were terrible, the kitchen is tiny and hardly encourages cooking/hanging out, the drinks at the bar are pricy, they skimp on internet (1hr for your whole stay, no matter how long it is). And at 28 euro/night in slow tourism season, i was not very impressed.

Liked: The staff was friendly and helpful with the issues that came up in our stay.

Disliked: We had sewage problems in our bathroom which made it smell, we also found EXTREMELY gross fluids on our bed, not even stains meaning they didn't wash the sheets underneath and right by our hostel we saw two men get strangled.

16 March 2011 Lars would recommend this property

Liked: Some of the nicest hostel rooms I have ever stayed in. The bathrooms were nice, and cleaned daily. The rooms has lockers, they were not large enough to store large backs but a regular sized school bag and laptop could easily fit in them. The staff was helpful for the most part, however some of them did not speak the best english (expected in a foreign country) and did not seem to know the best and cheapest ways to enter museums and monuments. The lift to the rooms is a great convenience.

Disliked: The internet cards are a bit expensive and dont always work properly. The communal computers are slow and buggy too. The hostel lacks a proper common room and kitchen, which slightly cripples the social atmosphere. The bar is the closest thing to a common room, but isnt the best place to socialize.

27 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: nice and big enough bar room to meet people and have a drink together; one can also dance in front of the counter; the bar is open until 1am. there is a computer room with ~ 6 computers. one can grab a slice of pizza in the evening (this offer seems to be limited until end of march 2011).

Disliked: the elevator didn't always work in the way one would expectv (although never out of service during the stay). coffee seems to be without caffeine breakfast is a bit ``italian style'' (no cheese or ham, only sweet marmelade)
