I'm not sure where to start. First off the hostel is cheap which is good if you are on a budget and it wasn't hard to find the place. Once we arrived we found that our room wasn't bad. The beds, not sure I can call them beds, basically a wood box and a thin foam pad on top. Very uncomfortable. Nice thing is that they give you towels but they are small, not much bigger than a hand towel. The staff was helpful. There are two non-stop bars....STAY AWAY!!!! If you want to go somewhere for a drink try the resturants they close around 11pm. I would not recommend staying in this hostel. Get something closer to the city.

Stayed there for 3 nights, and overall we found it to be mediocre. We had booked using Bug, but they didnt have our reservations. After that hastle, we got a room with a full bed and bathroom. Basically I think it was a sad little (tiny) communist apartment that they converted into a hostel. Our room was fine, though bring your own sheets!! Not the safest part of town, but not too bad. Breakfast was decent. I guess I would recommend this place, but if you can look for somewhere either closer or cooler.

I stayed in this hostel this weekend with my boyfriend, for three nights. I will start with telling the good points. The rooms are very cheap, the location is not bad, the hostel is located near a metro station in a quiet area (except for the trams en trains passing by) just outside the centre. The beds we slept in were ok, considering the price of the room. The toilet and shower were nearby and clean.But our biggest complaint is the noise from our neighbours. It started the first night and continued during the second and third. We could hear our neighbours coming home at three in the night, we heard things you don't want to hear from anybody.. we heard one of them puking, and worst of all, snoring. Nothing helped, banging on the walls, on their door, shouting, etc. And that for three nights, the snoring! But I would recommend this hostel, but DON'T FORGET YOUR EARPLUGS!!! like we did... :-(
