The rooms facing the courtyard aren’t noisy at all. The staff were perfect, and the location is good, walking distance to the center. Some rooms are connected to each other and you can hear a lot from the neighbors.

Good location, comfortable bed. The breakfast lacked a fruit or cucumber option after lunch, and the room was “pavrges”.

For one night, this was definitely an okay hostel. The breakfast was decent, and for the price you shouldn’t expect more. In a dorm I’d prefer a private bathroom in the room; instead we had two male showers that we had to share between different rooms. Not every bed had a power outlet, but you could charge your phone via USB at each bed. A very social guest, but the hostel can’t handle that.

The location was fine, but the experience was very disappointing. Guests must put on their own bedsheets and linens when they arrive and remove them before checking out, which is inconvenient. The breakfast staff member was extremely rude and unprofessional; when I asked about hot water, he snapped, “We only have this. If you don’t like it, don’t come here.” That is unacceptable customer service. The bathroom felt like a tiny airplane toilet, not a proper hostel bathroom, and a persistent moldy smell filled the hostel, even inside our room, making the stay unpleasant. Overall, poor facilities, bad conditions, and terrible staff attitude – I would not recommend this hostel.

We enjoyed breakfast, though it was quite basic; more fresh fruit, vegetables, and eggs would have been nice. The breakfast coordinator was an exceptionally good person who cared for our needs, kind, respectful, and always ready to help, making the experience more pleasant. The hostel’s location was also excellent, letting us explore the area and try several local spots and restaurants, which added to the enjoyment. I didn’t like the late check‑in policy: we had to wait a long time on a hot day, especially with children, and although many rooms seemed available, early check‑in wasn’t offered. As a family with kids, we would have appreciated some priority or consideration; the arrival was quite unpleasant at first.
