Comments: A great location and very nice staff but the dodgy plumbing meant that there was a lingering bad smell in the bathroom. A little shabby but generally adequate.

Comments: A very clean hostel right in the city center. We enjoyed our 5 days at this hostel. The staff is very friendly and helpfull. The hostel is clean and also very quiet. Although some doors can only be closed with brute force, which sometimes wake you up during the night. There are no activities/fun, but just to sleep it is perfect. Beds are very good, the best I ever had and I travelled a lot in Europe.

Comments: Nice hostel, well-kept, nice house with local decorations. Not much opportunity to meet other travellers. Cleaning of bathroomfloors could be better, saw the same piece of plastic laying at the bathroom on the fourth floor for 4 nights. but decoration was very nice, rooms were very clean, good sheets and towels provided, we can recommend this hostel.
