Für eine Nacht okay…
Die Toiletten und Duschen waren sehr sauber, die Zimmer auch. Die Zimmer sind sehr klein, was okay ist für 1-2 Nächte. Die Betten waren allerdings eine Katastrophe. Unser Hochbett hat gequietscht und die Matratzen waren durchgelegen. Außerdem ist es sehr hellhörig, man hört jedes Wort und jeden Schritt der Zimmernachbarn. Wer da empfindlich ist sollte das Hostel besser meiden.

Dyrt
Dålig städat, hittade död kryp och svarta grejer i sängen. Ganska lyhörd, kallt. Dyrt för ett litet rum.
