Liked: The staff is extremely helpful, it's well-located and have a nice common area.

Disliked: The rooms are too small for 6 beds and the architecture of the dorm floors reminds me of a prison. The breakfast isn't good too but that's the usual for hostel.

Liked: the keycard was a wristwatch that worked for front door, room and locker, very helpful when spending day on the beach, and you don't want to take everything with you.

Disliked: the outside terrace closed early, such a beautiful city, you want to sip wine while idling the hours away

Liked: The hostel was nice and easy to find. The wristband system to get in the rooms and lockers was fantastic - you never lost your key and your stuff was always completely secure. They kept the place really clean, especially the bathrooms. The breakfast was simple but all I would have wanted. I thoroughly recommend it!

Disliked: The air conditioning in the rooms could have been a little bit cooler

Liked: The location is very close to Metro.

Disliked: The guest kitchen is too small and it is often very busy. It should let the guests have choice of washing clothes in the bathroom or using the machine. I don´t like to limit washing the clothes by the machine with token of 3 Euros, just a few clothes in general. The breakfast should have more choices of snack.
