The new rooms ensuite are brilliant. The Youth Hostel is literally only 15 minutes away from the main shopping street. Staff are very friendly. Overall a very pleasant experience.

Chilly
Radiator was not working in the room, and as the windows were wide open when I arrived it was chilly. They provided an oil filled radiator and this provided some comfort. Brief stay so did not use any other facilities.

Complicated
Overall OK, quiet, central location and good public transport access, good kitchen, washing machine... Too many doors needing keycard access, even from the lounge to the toilet. Shower room is weird, you get hit by the door if you try to get dried off/dressed outside of the shower.

It's a very clean hostel with nice furnishings. However the atmosphere seemed almost sterile and while it was a good hostel for the price, I've seen better.

Amazing value and stonking location
Really clean and recently refurbished. They have weird green lights in the room that won't turn off though. I could sleep on a clothes line but it annoyed even me so I had to stick my shirt over my head! Incredible value and location

Un peu loin du centre-ville à pied, mais il s’agit d’un établissement très propre et sécuritaire. Tranquille en décembre.

Negatívne
Objednané a potvrdene 1 lôžko v dvojlôžkovej izbe. Skutočnosť bola 4 lôžka. Absolútna nespokojnosť. Vysoká cena za 1 posteľ v 4lozkovej izbe!!!

Très jolie place, la dame a l’accueil est une vraie perle, très gentille, l’endroit est propre et assez commode. Toutefois, ce n’est pas du tout près du centre-ville, il faut planifier ces déplacement en bus ou voiture. Il n’y a pas beaucoup de salle de bain par étage, mais règle général, j’ai eu un bon séjour en je suis satisfaite de mon service.
