Good location, easily accessible by metro. Rooms were super clean, bathroom and toilet included. The beds were confortable (more than in other hostels located in the center and that are more expensive). I didn’t try the breakfast but the bar area was nice. The place felt pretty secured as well. There were a few school groups in the hostel while I was there. Something to be aware of, but it didn’t bother me. I would definitely go back !

Nothing to complain. The staff were extremely friendly and beds were comfortable. The only thing is that the toilets have a sewage smell and they’re not cleaned by housekeeping daily.

Liked: Cleanliness

Disliked: Amenities

This hostel was very aesthetically pleasing — the rooms were spotless and well-organized, and the showers were equally clean. However, I was disappointed by the amenities, especially considering the higher prices. There was no self-serve guest kitchen, which I’ve come to expect from hostels, as almost all I’ve stayed in provided one. Overall, everything felt a bit overpriced, and the setup didn’t offer much flexibility for guests to prepare their own meals. While the space itself was lovely, the value for money just wasn’t there for me.

Disliked: Cleanliness

They checked me into a pre-occupied room with stuff in the locker, used beddings and extremely smelly washrooms. I got moved into a different room after I talked to the staff. Staff is friendly and helpful. My room’s locker was in the corner that I could not open it up all the way as it would hit the wall. Not very functional and extremely noisy to use. The breakfast buffet is not really a full buffet as they would only let you order the main breakfast dish once, which is also to pick one option out of 4/5.

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.
