Was a good place for a place to sleep, not much going on in the hostel though. But the staff were friendly and helpful. I left my iTouch in the room and the staff were honest and kept it in case I came back to get it...which I did.

the hostel is very clean - it looks like it used to be an old dorm. wifi and internet are not free, it's actually very expensive! reception closes fairly early...

Maybe the size of the hostel makes the staff to be unpersonal. Maybe if they are two at the same time. The breakfast is nice. And donīt forget to get your pin number before going out or you will sleep on the street.

Situated near the city centre, location is great. A little bit dull. Breakfast is good.

A great location and facilities, but not a great overall hostel atmosphere. Then again, there's not much else to choose from... a bit unreasonably priced :(

Clean, very friendly staff, good location. On the weekend I imagine the bar downstairs is a good place to meet other travellers. Great breakfast. Only downside is that it's a little "institutional" looking, but if that'd doesn't matter this is a great place to stay!

very nice youth hostel, the room we stayed at was spacious and we enjoyed the free breakfast. bathroom could have been better, I didn't like the idea of pressing the button all the time to keep the water flow going.
