Now, I feel bad for giving this place only two stars. So I want to point out this review is based on my subjective experience, that her than how everyone may enjoy the hostel. The positive: this hostel is immaculately clean, very new and almost like a hotel. The staff are so lovely. Good location. Additional experiences. I arrived to a work site as things were being finished/fixed in the hostel. The tradesperson, after shouting for someone who worked there, called a member of staff for me who then arranged my key and room. Linen, a necessity for a backpacker generally, was extra. Got into my room. Very small hotel box room, with a chair and table so small people couldn't actually sit at it, one set of bunks and one single bed crammed in. This room, would be cosy with one bed. But 3 and superfluous furniture.. There was barely enough room on the floor to put bags. After the other two guests arrived, moving was a hazard. The communal spaces were cold, Spartan and echo-y. Rarely members of staff were present at reception. They place up a sign saying to call if you need anything any they'll come immediately. But, as a traveller, it's mr uncommon not to have a phone. And skype-calling may be an impossibility, with the Internet that constantly failed while I was there. All in all, it's hard to complain because it was.. Nice. In a weird way. It's pretty. It's clean. But, I won't stay here again. It's not the right place for me. The space feels like a hotel with too many beds put in. Little to no soul and for €36 for two nights, not really worth it when you compare it with other options. Maybe if you have a private room and treat it as a cheap hotel, you'd have a better experience. read more
