It's a kind of clean hostel with exactly the things you need but I really really missed a nice and cosy atmosphere ! There's for example a tv room but its next to the kitchen with all the sounds from the kitchen and no nice couches to really relax. The rooms were okay but not with much room for bags and stuff. Only a few hooks and no rails or space under the beds. TFor a YHA hostel its poorly designed. THere's no toilet facilities in the kitchen building and this building is apart form the rooms

This is a very pleasant hostel. The staff were very nice and the hostel clean. The kitchen was large and reasonably well equipped but a garlic crusher would have been nice and some small oven dishes would be great. Overall this was a nice place to stay.

Staff were nice and friendly and the rooms clean. Found the kitchen under resourced, ran out of knives and forks for eating and no decent kitchen knives for preparing food. One fridge was broken so it was almost impossible to find fridge space for our food. But other than that I think it was a great hostel.
