    I believe it could have some "cubes" in the beds to leave our stuff And also more hangers in the room.

    The location of this hostel is great—it's very close to public transport and the city center. The staff were also wonderful and very friendly. The breakfast was typical for a hostel, and you are expected to clean and rinse your own dishes afterward. This was my first time staying in a mixed-gender dorm with three men, but it was a perfectly fine experience as there were no spots available in the female dorm. The bathrooms and showers were clean. A small suggestion would be to add hooks inside the shower stalls for clothes, as the ones on my floor seemed to be missing. I stayed in early August during a heatwave. The room had fans, which helped a little, but it was still quite hot. This is something to be aware of if you're traveling during the summer. Overall, it's a good place to stay for its location and friendly atmosphere.

    We had our own private room with a shared bathroom with another private room. Our only complaint is that the shower is tiny. Other than that, we loved everything! We definitely would stay here again!

    Everything is great here!

    Haha that I wasn’t able to join as many activities as I wished.

    This was my first solo trip and it was all round worth it. I loved the location, the very sweet people and the so many activities they offer. Would for sure come again.

    I didn't like that the bedroom door opened at night at 2am. I don't know what happened, but we made sure it was locked before going to sleep. I woke up instantly cause it made noise and closed it.

    I liked the welcome written card, it was a nice touch. The staff was amazing :) always clean facilities.

    The bed frame was metal and squeaky, and the mattress was just a basic foam mattress. Of all the hostels I stayed in, these beds were the least comfortable and most annoying (to try and sleep through the squeaks of 8 people moving when sleeping).

    The location was great, the staff really friendly (and Nicol who keeps the kitchen fridges clean does an amazing job!) Ability to wash your clothes (for a fee) and a lovely quiet co-working space with lots of power points. The breakfast looked great although I didn't have it. The rooms were quiet even when the main area was noisy, and the bathrooms were pretty clean too.

    The property itself was great, even the staff. Although some moments were bumpy due to load students, the staff did their best to keep the hostel as quiet as possible.

    Property is great for the value

    We could see the beams of the roof. There was no ceiling. It was very hot because we were on the 5th floor. We were constantly asking for AC at the reception, because only they could turn it on.

    Close to the city centre.

    Can be noisy if you are in a dorm with a lot of people, which is to be expected in a multi room hostel

    Great hostel, friendly staff, running a lot of good events, free walking tours, perfect location, big spaces for working, kitchen is great.

    It's a little hard gettin up the upper bed and the locker is really loud but huge which is nice

    The guys and girls at the reception are really nice and helpful, it's cool that the organize stuff where you can get in contact with other people. The hostel is located really good and it's nice that they have a 24h reception. Sometimes there was free food which was great also.

    Great location. The room was spacious, very clean, and the bed was super comfortable. The staff were all very nice and helpful! The elevator wasn’t working during our stay, but they kindly carried our suitcases all the way up to the 6th floor — really appreciated that extra effort.

    The showerhead fell off a few times but it was manageable.

    We had the "penthouse suite" - top floor with an outdoor rooftop area all to ourselves. Scored there!
