Lovey hostel in centre of...

Liked: Loved the lounge, the home like feeling, organization of the rooms.
Disliked: The bunk beds are 3 on top of each other and can feel claustrophobic. It's not the easiest thing to climb into them but once you're there, comfortable and cozy

Really clean and well located...

Liked: Very clean and great location
Disliked: Doesn’t have a common area or reception, lacking the atmosphere of a hostel it’s mainly just a bed and a shower.

If you can find a...

Liked: Central location and very nice and helpful staff.
Disliked: 3-4 floors up without elevator, building on top of s bar with parties every night (even a fire alarm went off because they were smoking) at the building late at night waking us up.Room without much space to fit the luggage of 6 people living in it, metal boxes like bird cages (see through) for out things that were never cleaned inside, room that smelled awful and kept the window open all day with snow outside.Only 2 hairdryers (one not working most times) for all the rooms of both hostels on the same building.Lights going on after 4pm (sunset) only, so we couldn't even see inside the tiny and dark room during winter grey dark days without using our phones.Door code for the female only floor same as the other hostel, didn't feel private although it was safe and the vibe was ok.
