Liked: Staff is very friendly and helpful. The whole atmosphere makes you feel like home rather than a hostel - you can use the chill out area, the kitchen, the DVD library, WiFi, ... they have thought of everything. It's only 5 min walk to the train station and ~10 min walk to some nice restaurants.

Disliked: Nothing!

Liked: The rooms are fantastic - cool architecture, cozy, comfortable, light - simply perfect. Extremely friendly, cool and helpful staff - you get the impression you are staying at some friends' place without them bothering you, very nice atmosphere. It is simply THE BEST HOSTEL I have ever stayed at, and I have been all around the world. Also the location is excellent, fully centrally located in an interesting, urban and hip part of town but still pretty quiet.

Disliked: If you don't like this hostel you should really stay at the Hilton or Marriott!

Liked: awesome decor, really friendly and helpful staff, great facilities like free internet with laptops for you to use, nice breakfast, always had hot water!

Disliked: only small problem was too much light in the bedrooms, and our room was separated from another room only by a curtain so we often caught glimpses of other guests when we didnt really want to!

Liked: I liked helpful staff, location and design of furniture.

Disliked: A little bit too messy for my taste (magazines, food and stuff lying all around the place) and the breakfast was quite poor. We came half an hour after the breakfast started and there was already just leftovers of poor breakfast.
