10/10 Exceptional

The room was clean, had everything we needed. There is a nice lounge to stay in and even a small area for kids that our kids loved. Having a small kitchen helped so much. The laundry was easy to use and very convenient. The location is great because it is right next to a mall and the main train station.

The walls are a bit thin and I was put next to a noisy family but I asked to move room and the staff very kindly moved me so had no problems then, good location close to train station with easy access to public buses to the city centre/ airport

Location was fantastic as we were travelling Europe by train. Easy walkable distance to the Old Town but plenty of bus stops located close by as well. Staff were great, had a private twin room and we were very happy with it. Great facilities for doing laundry as well. Overall I would happily recommend staying her to others.

Convenient location, rooms are big with luggage storage and laundry rooms. Would have been better if larger standing fans are furnished for the hot summer especially in the rooms with smaller windoss.

The staff at the front is great. Very helpful. The bed are a little uncomfortable. The location is so close to the train station which is great. Its probably a 20 minute walk to the old town though.

This is a hostel so it doesn’t have some of the amenities of a hotel but it was very nice. We were a family of seven traveling and we had plenty of space in our room. We felt very comfortable and it was nice and quiet. I would recommend this place!

Better than many hotels, and much less $$$

I gave this a five because it is what it says it is and maybe a bit more. Very convenient to the train station. Tall rooms with good lighting. Breakfast was fine. All for very reasonable price.

Convenient location near the train station, but a bit far from main city attractions. The rooms are ok and quiet for a hostel.

8/10 Very good

This a&o was in much better shape than Munich. The only drawback was that it attracts a lot of teen groups who are super noisy, well into the night, even after 10 p.m. quiet time cutoff. Staff was pleasant. Great location, 5 minutes from train station and an easy walk to the Old Town.

Outlets in the room did not work, my check in was delayed by over two hours because the room “had not been cleaned yet.” Staff were great, and room was clean. Good for the price, but not amazing.

10/10 Exceptional

Impressed that this hostel runs fully on sustainable energy. Front staff were very warm and friendly despite how busy it was. Wifi quality was great and the lobby area included diverse amenities. Glad that the bathroom and toilets were separate which allowed 2 persons to be able to use simultaneously. Only thing I'd recommend as an improvement is an extractor vent fan for the toilet.

Cleanliness of reception. Abscence of loitering at the reception and in front of hostel. Absence of smoking at the door of the hostel. I liked thd fast check in and the politeness of receptionist. Still cigarette smoke is smelled in reception.

6/10 Good

This hotel is OK if you are traveling with a group of friends and are in your younger years. However, for a family of four (children between 8-11) it was a little loud at night, the walls seemed rather thin. Rooms were clean, bedlinen was clean and the bin was emptied daily. Staff at check-in were helpful and pleasent. I know this isn't a big thing but, the colour scheme of the rooms and corridors was depressing. Three different shades of gray!

Very uncomfortable mattresses. Checkin was slow. Felt very understaffed. Questionable value. Clean though and friendly staff. Good breakfast.
