“This is not place for rest”
Describing this place is very difficult. It is not a shelter for travelers. The room is very small, the beds are tired and uncomfortable, and the bathroom is shared. Is it a hotel or what? The receptionist is difficult to communicate with customers. If you are late after 10 pm, it closes and you will sleep in the street.

“Nice and cosy !”
The hostel is clean, cosy and offers everything you need for a few nights. It is really close to the By market. The owner is lovely and helpful. For example, we could leave our bags for the day at the reception. We will come back for sure during the summer !

“Cozy Convenience”
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Barefoot Hostel. What stood out the most was its exceptional value, offering all the essentials for a short stay: a well-equipped kitchen, bathroom amenities (including a hairdryer), and convenient proximity to tourist attractions.The easy access to public transportation added to the overall positive experience

“Not”
I didn't stay because nowhere was it mentioned that check in closes at 10pm until I had paid and was on my plane. So I stood for 20min outside in the rain trying to attract the manager before having to shift to another hotel at a much higher cost.
