Very bad experience

There was no access to the terrace, and there was only one person in the reception which made the check-in very long. Also they turn off the air conditioning in the night, and that was the worst part. I'm never going back to that place.

Really bad experience at this hostel. The lack of help and unprofessionalism of staff was a real disappointment. I lost a gold bracelet with great sentimental value to me, that I know fell off in the hostel, and no staff member offered much help with this, with only 1 bothering to look in lost and found. Worse than this, as we were getting ready for the day a cleaning lady came into our room without knocking while I was getting changed and was completely naked. She proceeded to leave the door open while telling us to leave the room, insisting our stay was over despite us having 1 day remaining. My partner then showed her that we were staying until the next day and she did not apologise and continued this while I was completely naked and covering myself with just a skirt. Super embarrassing experience and a complete let down. While the room was spacious, we would not recommend.

Avoid!!

Horrible staff!! Extremely rude and unprofessional. Check in took forever! No one was at the entrance when we arrived for a solid 30 minutes. When the receptionist arrived, he didn’t care and seemed extremely short and unapologetic. The location and room were decent but the walls and street noise were unbearable. Will not be coming back.

A hostel not a hotel

My bed creaked noisily as soon as I got on it. Not great for a good night’s sleep. And there’s not much (any) sound insulation. I accept it’s a hostel not a hotel, so you can’t expect hotel levels of quiet or comfort. But €197 is a lot to pay for a hostel…
