- close to the old town and just 15 mins walking from the bus stop - very clean - tea & coffee available - lockers with key - free towels

- no hairdryers (probably you should ask) - lots of noise from the outside (trams running starting at 5 am) - you can't wash just your hair, you have to take shower completely as the shower head is fixed to the ceiling and there is no additional mobile one

Nice spacious room in a shared dorm Sofa and space to relax in the room Clean and comfortable Free towel and hairdryer available Great location for exploring the old town. It is probably worth being aware it is located on quite a noisy street, I could hear loud music until early in the morning, great if you want to party in your doorstep and the tram line runs just outside. Good key and locker system and all working. Located on the First floor - has an elevator

it is an old building, and the entrance looking like a traditional office , but theres security 24/7 downstairs, so I feel very safe as female traveller spacious and clean bathroom+ bedroom, everyone can get their own personal space. the common area is comfy too, tho the wifi there is not strong, so its unable to watch youtube...

Theres one basic stove and microwave, you can only cook something easy I stayed during weekend, and the clubs downstair were SO LOUD the entire night, I am that kind of person could sleep with music, but not that level of nosises, my bed was next to the window, even I closed the window, I can still feel the floor and bed were shaking... its so peaceful during weekday tho The staff wont stay during the night, so we have to do it ourself, get the hairdryer on our own, and drop off keys at counter, not a big problem tho

1. Room was good, with lot of natural light as well as the lamp were good. 2. Location is awesome, a perfect 10. Next to presidential palace, everything in the old town is in walking distance, Musical tiles, Michele's Gate are near by. 3. Toilet was clean. 4. Staff were super cool, friendly and helpful. Gave us nice tips about drinking Kofola 5. Well equipped kitchen were there with a fridge. 6. Nice common room, with free coffee, milk, tea, sugar were there. 7. Well equipped kitchen were there. 8. Lot of food options near by.

1. Booking.com showed breakfast included but later updated and showed no breakfast. Only free coffee, milk, tea, sugar were there. 2. A wash basin in the room would have been good. 3. Better to have sound proof window as it is next to the main tram line.

10/10 Location, could not be better! Located a pedestrian crossing away from the old town. Cheap price is always good. 10/10 cleanliness. The staff were absolutely lovely and the check in went smoothly. The kitchen has no oven but has everything you could really need (sink, fridge, kettle, two induction hob rings, toaster, microwave, dishwasher) and lots of plates/bowls/pots/pans etc. Has an area where you can chill out, play PlayStation, guitar, ukelele, cards. Also area with selection of teas and coffee (with sugar milk water etc). Someone let us leave luggage in before our check in time which was lovely but there isn’t always staff present so don’t rely on it! Provide you with towels

Unfortunately the walls are exceptionally thin and you can hear every word spoken outside. There is also two clubs within earshot and we could hear the music from the room at night even with the windows closed. When the clubs closed there was a 20 minute period where the chatter from the groups outside made it impossible to sleep. They had earplugs at the reception - you can see why!

I really did not expect this venue to be so clean, modern, and spacious! I usually feel a bit of discomfort when staying in 8 or more bedded rooms because they might be too small and get too stuffy and overcrowded. Not to mention some people's problematic hygiene and incapability to clean up after themselves. So, I expected this to be somewhere in this direction. But, absolutely not! I stayed in an 8 bedded dorm that is surprisingly spacious. There is a rack for towels and safety boxes the appropriate size, and enough hangers to put your clothes on. These somewhat trivial things actually make a big difference. This is what lacks even in much "luxurious" and pricier hostels. The bathroom has two showers, all in blue, with curtains and complimentary head and body shampoos along with the possibility to have an extra towel at no charge. The bathroom and other facilities were squeaky clean when I was there. The washing machine is there and I saw a hairdryer.

Nothing. I did not find a single thing to rant about.

The location is great, super central and the room was big. I highly recommend

Everything went well until check out day. A guest checked in at 7am (on the website it says 2pm to 10pm) and brought approximately 8 suitcases (including bags) and unpacked almost everything when she arrived, making a lot of noise. There was no one at check out and I left the key on the counter. I found it a little disorganized at this point.

Nice location, good price.

It was very noisy in the night due to street noise - discoes, singing and shouting people, the tram that you can feel in the room. The room needs to be maintained better - beds need small repair and windows, too. There was a smell of kitchen coming from the Mexican restaurant beneath the room. The hostel is good and clean overall but needs more maintenance.

The hostel is nice and has a lot of features like a couch and table in the room, TV and playstation, free earplugs, coffee and tea. it’s quite cozy and relatively clean. the room is really spacious. location is very good - very close to the city centre and just a tram ride away from the main train station.

The room faces the street and you can hear the trams in the evening. the room is also quite bright at night because of the street lamps. the window blinds don’t really keep the light out.

- the location is five minutes from the main square and in the old town near everything - we went as a couple and would recommend for everyone - it has a big common room with sofas, tables, free coffee, a big tv with Netflix and a playstation - the rooms are clean and spacious - common kitchen has dishes and even glasses for wine 😁 - common toilets and showers were clean at all times and they were mostly empty - the staff gave us a map of the town as we checked in. He marked every important place in the town (great restaurants, pubs and tourist places - tip based guide tours for example). We explored every recommendation and all of them were more than great. He also showed us restaurants with student discounts. He was really approachable and nice, one of the nicest I met. - I would definitely come back to this hostel

- the only thing we didn't like is that there were dogs and they were sitting on the sofa
