    Excellent staff at reception, extremely helpful. I took an extra blanket as I was chilly, the next day I discovered hairs on it, long brown couldn’t possibly be mine.

    Very lumpy pillows and mattress. Breakfast could be better - no fruit or butter available and the scrambled eggs a bit hard and dry.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Good, quiet location, close to the centre.

    The matresses in room 2. Probably the most used room. Those need to be changed.

    It was a good price, and close to the city center. Staff very helpfull. Thanks

    The staff was great, they helped me a lot with tours and providing general information! The location is not far from the mais street. It's worth it!

    Beds could be more comfortable, I also missed a second pillow. Facilities and room interiour were not new, but still in a decent condition.

    Very good location, good quality-price ratio. You can easily find a parking place outside. Breakfast was mediocre, nothing special.

    I stayed in a 4-bed dorm. The good: Nice staff, nice common space, friendly neighbourhood dog Omero who likes to play fetch with pinecones. The bad: No soap in the bano, this was really disappointing. Every bano should have soap for hand washing. Also, I would not recommend this place if you are tall. Bedroom ceilings were about 2.3m and the top bunk does not have much clearance. On the bottom, I hit my head on the bunk bed's sharp corners several times. Yes I'm clumsy but these beds have built-in hazards. The room was small. And the power outlet was not beside my bed.

    There is a lot of noise from the local dogs and birds, SERIOUSLY! Also the heat was on in our room and couldn’t be turned off. The towels were very scratchy and not soft. Pillows need to be updated .

    Location is excellent, the breakfast is a bonus and the staff are awesome.

    Staff were brilliant, breakfast was basic but good. Kitchen was small but therefore encouraged chattering amongst guests. Perfect place, I stayed for a couple of nights and would have stayed longer if I could.

    The room had some unpleasent smell and ín the kitchen the unstensils were old and only a few of them. We had to wait for each other to finish eating because there were just like 2-3 forks in the whole hostel.

    The location was good, close the the main Street, the staff was friendly and had a nice common area.
