Nice place. The thing I really liked about it was that your bunk had a curtain so there was some privacy. Bed was comfortable. Kitchen was nice. They served a free dinner every night if you signed up which was great at the end of the day. Overall pretty good. The only complication was with their website. Nothing could be accessed from a computer and everything had to be done from my phone. But that worked out fine.

Black Swan Hostels are great, and yes, they are a chain. They all offer the same things, nightly family dinners, free walking tours and extra activities, and of course the pub crawl, depending on time and day. Everything to bring the guests together and make friends. The volunteers/employees are amazing. Thankyou to Rameiro, Caro and Rebi for always engaging with me and all the other guests. I will definitely be back, thankyou 🤠🤙🏻🤙🏻
