Was decent for the price and totally fine for the night! No bedbugs, private bathrooms for each dorm (though not accessible from the room). Had daily activities which is nice for solo travelers. Facilities could be cleaner and need an update. Could be overall cleaner!

Wouldn’t stay again Stayed Oct 16–19 in Room 109, Bed 3. Unfortunately, I woke up with multiple itchy bites in a row on my back and neck, consistent with bed bugs. There was also a persistent toilet/sewage smell which made the stay uncomfortable overall. Staff might not even realize the issue yet, but I’d strongly recommend they inspect and deep-clean the beds. Travelers should double-check reviews before booking — I wouldn’t risk staying again

Factory hostel with X hundred people sleeping so it’s hard to create a nice hostel community vibe. Facilities overall are good. I had bed bug on the 5th floor, it has been handled well from the team, they closed the room and call a team for insecticides and such. Good reaction from them Hostel on that scale it’s maybe normal but probably it needs more monthly/weekly intervention to anticipate those situations (not an expert here) Anyway overall great place to stay

I had a rough experience here. Pros: good location and kind staff, privacy curtains on beds Cons: pretty much everything else. -most major, the last day of my stay (I was there 6 nights) I started noticing some itchy little bites and they have only gotten worse since then. I've never had bed bugs before, but I think that's what they must be. -rooms are small and noise carries, making it extremely difficult to get sleep. Someone in my room was moaning and vomiting two of the nights I was there and I heard everything. -room smelled weird, kind of a sickly sweet scent (not due to the vomiting because it smelled like that before) -laundry was expensive, I paid 9 euros for a laundry pod, wash, and dry cycle. There were only two washers and two dryers for the entire building and one of the dryers was out of commission. -no nice quiet areas to take phone calls. The upstairs common area is right next to the bar and is very noisy, especially at night. There is a "chill area" down next to the laundry but it's dank and depressing, plus there is music playing constantly. I could go on. I guess you get what you pay for, but I've been in other hostels that have been a much more pleasant and restful experience. I got increasingly fatigued each day I was here, and now I'm dealing with the stress of wondering if I brought bed bugs with me.

Great location and friendly staff are going for this hostel. However, cleanliness is clearly an issue as I got bitten alive by bed bugs which completely ruined the rest of my trip. Staff were good at moving rooms but this shouldn’t have happened in the first place. Now going home with more than 10 bites.

Had the worst three nights of my life at this hostel. no air condition or working fan in a room with 5 others while it being 33 degrees outside. apart from that, you could not stand up in the shower because of the roof, and it was not clean. bed bugs…
