Was not expecting to have so much fun at the Hostel. With daily events and drinking games staying in can be as fun as going out to the bars. The bartender Max was a great bartender and great to talk with. The hosts Keren and Lily were also fun to play drinking games with and were great hosts at the boat party!

The staff members are friendly. This is clearly a “social” hostel that anyone can make new friends all over the world. I live in a mixed room and all my roommates are polite and respectful. Events happen everyday so even if you don't want to plan your trip, you can enjoy the city quite easily.
