    Location Nothing

    Nice views, big rooms, and 2 private bathrooms, it was the perfect place to stay for our group. Amazing staff, they are really caring, nice and think with you.

    Bathroom was clean. The most basic thing you expect from any accommodation is a comfortable bed, and unfortunately this room completely fails in it. The mattress is extremely thin, almost like paper, so you can actually feel the wooden bed frame pressing into your back when lying down. The pillows are not real pillows at all, they feel like loose cotton granules stuffed into a piece of cloth, offering no support or comfort. Sleeping there was extremely uncomfortable.

    Very clean and cozy. Good location near transportation Some neighbors woke us up at 3 am and they were very loud and we could hear everything. Not the property’s fault.

    The location is super, few minutes walking to the Jewish quarter and city center. There is also a tram stop right in front of the hostel. Although the room was pretty clean, the bed was a serious problem. The mattress was quite inexistent, it was like 5cm and you could feel the wooden slats underneath. Also the sheets were dirty, with hair and stains. We asked for a new sheet to cover the mattress and they gave us another one, but still dirty and with holes. To be honest, we decided to wash all the sheets at a public laundry and we put the towels they gave us to cover the mattress itself. By doing that, we were more comfortable in terms of hygiene. Finally, the reception was closed for the most time of our stay. Maybe because of the holidays(?) Be aware that there is no elevator and a lot of stairs, in particular to get to the fourth floor.

    It was near by the centre and close to all the historical points. We had acces to the kitchen only from 9am to 8 pm. It is not acceptable, we were not able to make any food, tea or to spend time together as a group. 1 bathroom for 3 rooms with about 10 people is not enough.

    The room size was perfect, bed was comfortable. Good value and close to everything. No towels provided, no information about where the common area or kitchen was.

    Location, bathroom was nice, polite staff Fridge was in the kitchen, for everybody. In the kitchen was smelling of grass. There were terrible noice, shouting people, folling bottles on the stairs every night, even around 1:00 am. No elivator.

    The room really small, but very clean & quiet. The staff very friendly & ready to help. All in all, very satisfying experience ;) No TV in our room, but it was just one short night, so actually not an issue.

    Great location. The bathrooms were cleaned regularly. Quite hot inside and the common room was only open limited hours. Too late for our breakfast time and closed before we could have dinner some nights which meant we just had to eat out.

  • Engine customer Aug 2024

    Perfect location. You have to ask for a towel!

    It was clean and really friendly staff The hostel itself had a weird vibe. And the beds were hard but not comfortable hard but stone hard with dips in the mattress. Good beds if you want to torture your back

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Very good

  • Engine customer May 2024

    The staff was really friendly and helpful. The bathroom was shared with only another room, and there was no one at the time. Very good value for money, we had a great time. Facilities are simple but enough.

    Superb
