Very positive vibe. Above average hostel experience. Breakfast buffet is a bit limited. There’s a lot of young people staying here so it’s sometimes noisy.

Checking in was easy. Good English spoken. Lobby is very pleasant. Room was clean and above all quiet all night. Shower was lovely. Temperature perfect. Price we paid was really good value. After a reasonably late arrival on a Sunday we found plenty of eating options very nearby.
