Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We feel fooled by Expedia advertisement and the hostel. Pictures for room we ordered show a much bigger room. What we really got: 2 beds like in a prisoner's cell! I'm near a claustrophobia. Only information the kind guy at reception could give: There are no such rooms as shown (and ordered!) at the picture in Expedia. Hotel has just one of them (# x18) in each level and those are occupied already.

Reasonable single rooms

I took a single room in the hostel. The room and lobby were clean. The single bed was firm. The bathroom was fitted with a nice shower. There is one flight of stairs to reach the entrance. Inside there is a lift. The smoking area is outside the entrance. The hostel is a 10 minute walk to the main train station. Trams to the city Center are a five minute walk away.

Hotel was in a great location with easy access to transit. Hotel staff were great! But the hotel is very dirty and rooms looked and smelled like they have never been washed. Dirt all over the walls. Other then that you can’t beat the price and the market is right behind.

Clean room besides some dust bunnies under the bed. Easy walk from train station and conveniently has an Aldi immediately behind building. Shared kitchen isn’t much- more of a small room where no more than two people can comfortably fit with a microwave, two burners and a toaster. Not ideal for a long term stay or any intensive cooking. Very nice staff who spoke English.

In general it was a good stay for one night but I did not like that we had to pay an additional fee ( culture tax) because when I booked I thought I paid all I need to. Also the bed linen for 3 beds was not in the room and we were told that it could be picked up at reception. To get the beds done up would have cost extra. Weird concept for a hotel ( I did not book a youth hostel on purpose). The room was clean and big enough for 5 people. One bed seemed to be wobbly and one socket with charging port wasn't working - a half "Desaster" when traveling with teenagers. If you need quietness to fall asleep this hotel might have too many trains passing by. The breakfast was ok. The choice was ok and you could get enough to get you through the morning. The staff in general was nice and friendly.

This is a Hostel! Just FYI when we were checking in multiple people were at the desk complaining about things which made my check in longer then should. Simple things like they provide the sheets but you make the bed is not a big deal for me but others were quite upset LOL! Parking available €6 but fills up fast but we found found free street parking around corner. Good location 1km from Downton. They have a bar and small menu at hostel. I went with wife and two kids and we had no complaints
