    I tried two different bunk beds in 3 nights and there is huge lack of support. The mattresses are fine, it’s an hostel, but some wooden laths are missing and my sleep has been pretty bad.

    Excellent location, great staff, solid breakfast, plenty of communal areas, with the view on the 1000 windows. Well organized, sometimes they have activities at night and they can help you with tours. Wifi was pretty good but some zones of the property is out reach.

    I absolutely loved my stay at this hostel! The place was super comfortable and always spotless clean. But the best part was definitely the amazing people I met there — everyone was so fun and friendly! If you’re looking for a cozy, clean place with great vibes, this is it.

    All in all was really great. The (many) volunteers could have been a bit more welcoming and inclusive.

    Beautiful house and great common areas, inside and outside. Beautiful view from our "balcony" room Good breakfast (buryk, bread, jam, cheese, veggies fruit, coffee and cookies). The wifi is also good, and it's pretty comfortable to find a corner to work in online.

    The room equipment could use a bit of modernization, because the lockers were not lockable, and the bunk beds creaked terribly with every movement at night.

    The hostel is located in an absolutely beautiful place, and the atmosphere of the hostel is very pleasant. Staff was nice and friendly. Showers and toilets were fine. Beds had curtains.

    We stayed in a 6 bed dorm and the people were loud (not hostel fault). We stayed in september and it was cold. The parking is free public parking (not part of the hostel), which can be full, so no place to park.

    The hostel is beautiful and has a special vibe that makes the stay magical. You also get a breakfast and coffee for free in the morning. It is in a great location, close to the city centre and in a very cute neighborhood.
