Dear Guest! In the room that you stayed in (number 19), you can open 2 windows. Therefore we have no idea why you are writing this. Best regards, the staff

It is a hostel, not a hotel. Considering that and the price it's more than OK - clean, nice but simple. However - the atmosphere of the rooms is partly destroyed by awful lamps!! The location is fair, but it might be a bit hard for the newcomer to find it.

I loved that there is free WiFi and that the two PCs were running Free Software.

Its a pretty far walk outside the center, but the tram can get you there in under 10 minutes. The breakfast is OK, the rooms are quite small, but everything is kept clean and the staff can help with anything. There is no vibe though, and it is definitely pricey for what you're getting.

Simple, cheap accommodation not far from the city centre and the airport bus stop. The breakfasts were excellent value and good, free coffee and biscuits all day long was much appreciated. Pleasant seating areas for reading but possibly not enough for busy periods. Drawbacks: the wet towels on the floor of the showers (not really sure what the idea was), and the holders for the shower heads were broken in several showers.

Very nice hotel, clean and comfortable. Is located a little far from the center city, although very well connected with trolleys and buses. I'll stay there again without doubt.

My biggest issue was just the location. While it is only two or three tram stops to the city center, it's a rather long walk if you like to walk everywhere. Also, it doesn't really seem to be a good hostel for just hanging out, but that means it's great if you really need some rest.

Definitely worth the money, nice price for a stay in the city.

Hi I enjoyed this hostel. reception members and owners are very friendly, speically owner (don't know his name,though) was helpful as I arrive 6am, but gave code for door (surely I called and informed them I will be there before check in) and I could stay at lounge and had ooffe and breakfast without problem, also facility is almost hotel, only sharing romm but this is informed as hostel, so if you want hostel buget but with hotel level facility, recommend this hostel.
