Liked: Cleanliness
The location is convenient, close to the town centre/bus station. No staff on the property at night to provide service/supervise. I stayed in the male only room of this hostel for three nights. For 2nd nights, one of the roommate brought in a girl and made a lot of noise… THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WHICH I WOULD EXPECT!

Mycket trevlig personal

Mycket trevlig och hjälpsam personal som även gav bra tips på restauranger. Väl värt för sitt pris, rummet var enkelt men helt klart bra standard. Utsikten från rummet var 10/10. Rekommenderar varmt!
