The hostel is located in a quiet and peaceful area, around a 15-minute walk from the city centre and the main attractions, which is quite convenient. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated.

I really love how the female dorm truly considered female necessities, such as hooks for clothing and a rolling shelf. The pillow is very good quality. I love how the toilet paper is thick and luscious. The bathroom has a window, is in room and combines toilet, sink plus shower, so is very convenient to use. I noticed all the little improvements (such as two-tone bed lighting) and commend their renovations. The staff are responsive and make rules clear. The room was spotless. Every shelf and corner was clean, which makes a big difference because guests store their luggage under the bed, and place things wherever we find room. The breakfast is healthy and wholesome, with cheese and deli meats, and even raw eggs that you can cook yourself. Best hostel and I recommend highly.
