Very bad experience, they didn’t do cleaning properly. We stayed for 15 days and no one broomed the room and didn’t change the bed sheets either.
23.07.2025
I stayed there myself in a 4 bed dormitory room. It was an excellent room and I liked the service. But it is better to have a socket near the bed for charging. They have two usb charging ports near every beds but it is better to have a c port or a charging socket. But overall, I liked it. Especially the staffs are always helpful. I am highly recommend it to whom who are looking for a cheap accommodation😊

It was easy to access from tram station, nice staffs. We have to use stairs from 7 to 8 floor, it can be hard. Guest kitchen was honestly messy and not clean, but it is the hostel. There was hair dryer, shower, there were everything that I needed. It was good staying.

For me can’t book again

Rooms are comfy, breakfast was really good and the service is at the highest level.
Nearby you will find bus stops and shops about 3/4 minutes away.
More demanding customers may find fault with something. However, it is also worth looking at the price of the rooms. If someone requires a 5-star room, let them go to a 5-star hotel.

What a terrible customer service. Waiting in a line to check-in for 20 minutes just to be rejected and sent to another line with 15 people in it, because the receptionist ended her shift. What a rude and unprofessional attitude. Do not recommend this hotel.
10.12.2024
My Experience: I booked 2 nights via website for about 26€ then at front desk I added one more night and it became 46.31€ and it was crazy jump for one added night
Front desk: my check in was December 4th about 9pm. In front desk it was really unwelcome. There was female stuff responsible for reception and behaving very unpleasant and unwelcome seems she didn't like what she is doing but other days was different
Elevator: dirty, bad looking and functionaly not perfect
Room: 8 persons in one master room separated in two 4 when you add how much these 8 pay for room totally you understand this is even more expensive than luxury hotel but what you get is very cheap looking place
Overall Idea: for staying few nights and pay less money (don't add one night in front desk) and you have no more choice even I recommend other a&o places
09.10.2024
It was a beehive in the breakfast area and the staff didn’t do anything about it. Me and my friends probably counted 10-15 bees in the roof. Many bees even flied to us while we were eating forcing us to leave. I do NOT recommend this hotel at all.
