Close to main train station which is great, but a decent walk from the river and old town areas. Much cleaner in the rooms than anywhere else in the hostel. Laundry situation was a bit odd and not explained by the staff - ended up at a laundromat instead. But the room was clean and cool enough with the window open, even on a warmer night.

Hostel enorme e prédio extremamente confuso e mal sinalizado. você literalmente demora 10 minutos pra achar a escada certa que leva ao seu andar e achar seu quarto dentro do andar com vários corredores e mezaninos, sem ordem ou sinalização descente que te leve ao quarto certo. pra piorar o funcionário do check in estava sobrecarregado, demorou 5-8 minutos pra me atender e ainda me deu a chave do quarto errada. Quarto de 4 tinha 2 camas juntas. limpeza e instalações eram ok.

It was fine. the staff was nice when we needed them. The location is good, its really nice being close to the trainstation and it was about a 20-30 min walk to the center. However i feel it was a bit expensive for how theu delivered with the cleanliness. Quite dirty, didnt really feel like they ever cleaned the room, other than change trash cans. And we stayed 3 nights, and when we arrived the room was dirty to start. The kitcen had everything you needed but was also quite dirty and unpleasant

Kamers waren heel krap, als je met 6 of 8 mensen op een kamer ligt lig je echt op elkaar. Beneden was wel een bar, maar geen bijzondere of gezellige sfeer. We konden pas om 15 uur inchecken, maar de kamer was alsnog erg vies. Locatie was wel prima. naast het station en op loopafstand naar het centrum

The staff were not friendly or helpful at all. The room looked nothing like what the website pictures showed us we were booking, we had to make our own beds, the charging ports did not work and neither did the WiFi. Really weird mix of middle school students and old people. Good if your train is coming in late but other than that wouldn’t recommend at all

The location was the best part. But the downside about this place was the bathroom had not been cleaned and was disgusting. The shelves in the cupboards in the bedroom were broken. The bed shelves/sides are dusty.

La chambre et la salle de bain étaient très sales (restes de nourriture près des lits, drain de douche bouché,aucun papier de toilette,etc.) L’auberge se situe dans le quartier près de la gare.Bien que pratique, le sentiment de sécurité n’était pas très présent,surtout pour revenir ou marcher seule la nuit.Il n’y avait qu’une seule personne à la réception,donc toujours occupée avec l’arrivée de groupes,ce qui entraînait de longue attente. La cuisine et l’espace commun ...

Nice location for train. The cost is not worth it however. On my day of checkout, the room cleaner barged into my private room an hour before checkout. No knocking, just turned around to find him inside my room. Absolutely unacceptable.

Very clean hostel and the beds are super comfortable. The only reservations I have are there were no lockets to store things in, so a hostel lock is a must. Not the most social place, a lot of middle aged people were there during my stay which was interesting. The location is alright, as a female traveler I was just a tad uncomfortable walking back in the early evening in the dark. With that being said, overall good value for money hostel if you just want a bed that is clean.

Very disappointing stay. Despite night noise rules, it was extremely loud with shouting and vibrations of people running down the hallways until early morning. Our bunk was less than a metre from the toilet and the room was unbearably hot like a sauna which made it impossible to sleep. Radiator and windows poorly placed, accessible only behind one of the beds. Kitchen was absolutely filthy, with no bowls at all. Our food was stolen from the fridge twice which we were told happens regularly.

I had a good stay overall, but there are a few areas for improvement. The USB port at my bed wasn’t working, so I had to charge my phone at a socket further away, which can feel uncomfortable in a hostel setting. I also wasn’t keen on having to make my own bed after a long journey. On a positive note, the hostel offers a free bus pass during your stay, which is very useful since it’s not in the city centre. It would be helpful if reception mentioned this at check-in.

À proximité de la gare, mais pas le meilleur quartier non plus. Certains membres du personnel (pas tous) se contentntent du minimum dans leurs réponses. Des chips et des mégots retrouvés sous les matelas.

Super close to the train station but 20 min walk to the centre. Very comfortable bed. Just be aware that you need to do bed by yourself and top beds are not that easy. If you come late, I recommend to ask for a bottom bed. They a female room which is amazing. Hot shower, separately toilet inside the room. Pretty clean but top bed was dusty. They have kitchen and it works well. Stuff is so helpful and friendly. Just a recommendation to have more than one person at the reception for quick service.
