    LOCATION!! Very far from city center and bus stop. It will take about 10 mins walk from any bus stop even your pickups r not close by. If you have a car no problem at all. 🙂 But if you don't, then the walk with luggage can be quite trying.

    For exactly one night of sleep, it is very good. Very clean, very comfortable and nice lounge. Very responsive staff and helpful.

    It is quite far from the center if you want to go sightseeing, but on the other hand it can be a nice walk. Otherwise it was all good.

    The kitchen was very well equipped, there was even some free stuff to use (but we did not). The bathroom was clean, enough toiletts, the common room was also very nice. There were curtains on the beds to ensure privacy.

    The hostel didn't provide any shower towels.

    I had a very comfortable stay here. The place was clean and homely and the other guests were friendly and quiet. Each bunk bed had curtains for privacy. There was also a large kitchen with a stove and fridge etc - great for budget eating. Location was good - buses to city center or BSI stopped nearby and there were plenty of stores in the immediate area.

    They sent me wrong address. I was lucky that i could stay in the apartments and not have to move at 9pm with all my luggage to the hostel.

    I ended up a B14 apartments because the confirm the wrong address. But they manage to give me a room that was comfy. They have everything to cook

    - Bathrooms are located at common areas - No lockers provided

    Clean, and the location is fair. I read some reviews mentioning that the hostel is hard to find, but I think they have resolved the issue. Google Maps may not guide you to walk upstairs, but when you arrive, there is a large sign for B14 Hostel that directs you to go upstairs. Supermarkets nearby (24 hours).

    The bathrooms could have been less central as it felt a bit awkward coming out of the shower directly into the common main space. Also the rooms being close to the common space means there can be a bit of noise sometimes too but thats always to be expected a bit in hostels

    It was really clean and modern but also felt quite comfortable for a shared space. The curtains on the beds really helped. Free cereal and milk was great in the morning too. The location wasnt too bad. Its a bit far from the city centre but there are lost of shops, restaurants and supermarkets directly in the area which was helpful.

    Quality almost matches the price

    Instead of lockers, there are just IKEA containers below each bed. They should definitely install some lockable boxes - Iceland may be safe, but most of the other guests are not from there... The large dorm has just a tiny window, that cannot even be opened much to ventilate shock-wise. So you're left with a choice between constant slight cold or bad air quality. The absence of staff or any kind of greeting & advice feels strange - everything is automated. Overall the place does not facilitate social contact much. Also, some deals and discounts arranged with the local tour agencies would be nice.

    Situated in a retail park on 2nd floor, a bit hard to find. The good thing is, you can find affordable food in the 3 nearby major supermarkets. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking, even has an oven (no freezer though). There are plentiful bus lines to various parts of the city centre, however walking is also an option. A ZOO and a large hot water pool is in the vicinity.

    A little hard to find, at first. Parking was not clear, but we later found it. It wasn't clear which bedroom we were assigned to. The sheets were super itchy!!

    The check in was easy. All the codes worked great. The common areas were very big!

    When we arrived, there was a mess with numbering of the beds, therefore we had to take remaining upper beds, which is very difficult to climb to (no support, I had to basically jump down and I am tall person). One bed was also missing one side cover, so if you turn over at night you might fall down 2 meters. The hostel would need bit more care to be really good place to spend the night.

    The hostel has great equipment, good kitchen, living room to relax and quite comfortable beds with small curtains. Location is out of city centre but for the price its acceptable (bus is close-by).
