10 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: For an old building, i think it's maintained reasonably well. The location is near city centre and it's just a stone's throw away from Mc Donald's. The free Wi-Fi is a real bonus

Disliked: The shower room was a little cold and there was no hot water tap at the basin upstairs

Sightseeing & culture

12 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The best hostel I've ever been to. I liked the character of the hostel and the themes of the rooms. The paintings in the rooms and in the bathrooms were adorable. Everything was so perfectly organised in the hostel that I felt like in a five star hotel. There were a lot of people there, but it was not crowded at all. Bathrooms and rooms were extremely clean. I loved the dog!!!!!!!!!

Disliked: The only thing we didn't like was the humidity in the rooms - but it's due to the weather conditions, I guess...
