The room was clean, had everything we needed. There is a nice lounge to stay in and even a small area for kids that our kids loved. Having a small kitchen helped so much. The laundry was easy to use and very convenient. The location is great because it is right next to a mall and the main train station.

Location was fantastic as we were travelling Europe by train. Easy walkable distance to the Old Town but plenty of bus stops located close by as well. Staff were great, had a private twin room and we were very happy with it. Great facilities for doing laundry as well. Overall I would happily recommend staying her to others.

They have a bed at knee level in front of 2 bathrooms in a 6 bed dorm. NO ONE. Should have to sleep there. Never mind that the bed had a non working outlet! It was plugged in, but I had dead devices by morning time and missed my alarm. Should really be testing these things out for travellers. Bathroom needs to be cleaned more often aswell. Floor was completely dusty

The staff at the front is great. Very helpful. The bed are a little uncomfortable. The location is so close to the train station which is great. Its probably a 20 minute walk to the old town though.
