    The hostel was opened in 2024. It was spacious, the room was quite big. There were four rooms on my floor with two showers and two toilets, which was more than adequate. The hostel is very central, though there is practically nothing to do in...

    It was quite clean! The manager seemed to clean it on a daily basis. The beds were also comfortable. The location is also super. All in all this is a budget accomodation but it has all the basics you need.
