We stayed here for five nights. We tried to get the hair dryer but it was always unavailable. The front desk told us that we need to wait til someone return it. We weren’t able to get the hair dryer at all during our stay. I think the property should prepare enough hair dryer in each room.

Stayed here in June 2025 with my son. There are hundreds of dead bugs inside the light fixture (picture included). The window is paper thin and you can hear all the noise from outside. Bring your own pillows and blankets they don’t provide much. The hotel itself is located in a lower income area, lots of young people and had the air of a party place, not the in did place to bring. Your family. No room cleaning. This is a 1.5 star hotel, really the bare minimum provided. The place seems more like a hostel than a hotel. Not a good place.

Cosy environment and friendly staff

Both the staff and my roommates were very courteous during my stay. A cosy environment and respectful and friendly staff. Suggestion: The food and beverage part can be made a little more affordable. I had a smooth and peaceful stay. I would prefer it again, thank you.

Getting a good shower here was really hard. The water was either too hot or not hot at all. Location was good, nice neighborhood and a few meters across from a metro station. There is an option to buy a 9.50 eur breakfast, but they do not mention the default breakfast menu is included ij the room rate and that the 9.50 price is for an extra toast with scrambled eggs and bacon, a crepe, or a croissant.

elevators not working- understandable. but they closed a stairwell and only told you at the bottom, so you had to walk back up to exit. this can’t be safe for fire hazard reasons. €7.50 to rent a towel.. that should not be the case. the rooftop was also closed for a private event which was a main reason why I booked

Top quality hostel

It´s not close to the city center and it's around a little bit sketchy area but this is a top quality hostel, perhaps the best hostel i've ever been.
