Very affordable option with breakfast included. Accommodation is very simple and solid but definitely room for improvement as needs some in room facilities (tea/coffee, hairdryer). Room was also not cleaned and towels are not changed. More options for breakfast would also be good.

Pleasant short walk from Bois de Vaux bus stop. Smooth path, no stairs, easy access even with a luggage. Room was spacious and clean. Toilets were also nice and clean.

Very expensive for low quality offered

Hostel is very expensive for what if offers. No towels and soap. Internet is fast.Parking is outside in front of hotel with barrier. Room is dark and ugly and bad smell. Beds were very unconfortable. Breakfast is poor with just some salami, yoghurt and some jams. No supermakets nearby.
