Most reviewers found the service at this hostel very warm and welcoming, with friendly staff on reception 24 hours a day who reportedly provide helpful advice on what to see and do in the city.
An unfortunate number of previous guests were less than satisfied with the state of the bathrooms at this hostel, with comments on the lack of cleanliness in both toilets and showers, and a number of complaints regarding the unreliable stream of hot water. Some acknowledge the state of cleanliness is not necessarily the fault of the hostel, however.
Several reviewers say they were surprised to find many of their fellow guests were older, which meant the atmosphere was not particularly ideal for young or solo travellers looking to meet others.
According to many reports the heating in this hostel is not as effective as it could be, and several previous guests found their room and the building overall to be uncomfortably cold throughout their stay.
