Hold building that look bit sad. Smelly toilet. You have everything that you need but doesn't make you feel relaxed.

It's a good place to stay, even if the common room was very cold! The couches for the movies are wonderful!

The staff was awesome! Such nice, helpful people. The owner is a great guy, the desk ladies are super cool and Auntie is so nice and a great cook! Plus, Tiger is the cutest dog in the whole world and makes really good company. This was the best hostel stay I've ever had, and I was there for two weeks!!

The hostel is located at a very dark and silent street, very little street light. Security is bad, the reception counter is hiding in a corner, outsider can come in and sneak into the hostel room easily, because the window is easy to open.

The room was small, dark, with a small window overlooking the common part of the hostel, so we always had to cover it. There was no space for our things, smell musty, and the ceiling was a scary black. Only the bathroom was without reservation. Pokój był mały, ciemny z oknem wychodzącym na część wspólną, więc musieliśmy je zasłaniać. Nie było miejsca na rzeczy, śmierdziało stęchlizną, a sufit był przeraźliwie czarny. Jedynie łazienka nie budziła zastrzeżeń.

Beautiful hostel in a renovated old waterhouse. It has a common room were you can go on the internet, watch tv or dvds (they have sooooo many, a pity we did not stay longer) in two cute corners or just chill out. We had a great time there and would really recommend it to everybody!!

The Mingtown definately has a better location. This is down a quiet strret just a bit far from the attractions. Common areas are great and private room was average. Not sure I would have been happy if I had to use the communal showers and toilets espacially in winter. The dog is lovely.
