Heat place with great people near everything you could ever need less than five min walk to the subway that will take you literally anywhere in or out the city. Only complaint was the pillows are small amd flat and when I asked for another pillow they said they didn’t have anymore to give out which I think should never be the case when staying somewhere. Kitchen does not have an oven fyi but they do give you a towel to use for showering. I would def stay again tho when traveling solo.

You'll get pretty much what you expect

The place is conveniently located, and the service in the cafe is friendly in the morning. The showers and bathrooms were quite clean for a hostel and in general people were super kind and accommodating. I had a few strange encounters with staff and some good ones. The floor of my shared room was pretty dirty, and I arrived the same day as the other person in my dorm so it didn't seem like it was clean prior to our arrival. however, the common spaces were fine.

This was my first hostel and such an amazing experience ! I absolutely loved the cabins and they were clean and comfortable. It reminded me of camp. The only possible suggestion I’d have would be it would be nice to have a little shelf inside the cabin to put my glasses on (I am completely blind without them and need to have them even in the middle of the night).
