Good value

The hostel is a 20 min walk from eating places but has parking on the street in front and so narrow streets can be avoided Very clean and quiet except when other guests start showering prior to leaving in the morning, the water pipes echo through the concrete building. Still, it is very reasonably priced accom and completely contactless I can recommend this if you are driving

Its a bit out of the way for visitors without a car using public transport, but with a car it was fantastic. The only negative is that the neighbouring room occupants were noisy entering and exiting the property late at night and early in the morning. Limited dining options (variety) nearby

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We didn’t speak with anyone as the checkin and instructions were entirely made through WhatsApp and online services, but everything was quick, clear and friendly. The room was clean and smelled like cleaning products. Quiet neighborhood but we can hear other clients in the hallway and a little in their rooms. As far as I know, there are no reserved parking for this hostal, we parked in the street but it was easy.

Einfach und praktisch eingerichtet Zimmer leider sehr hellhörig Alles online...kein persönlicher Kontakt Badewanne ohne Stöpsel....der Umwelt zu liebe, naja, halte ich für Bevormundung. Jeder sollte selbst über seinen ökologischen Fussabdruck entscheiden dürfen. Dreimal Duschen am Tag oder mal ein Vollbad nehmen...gerade nach einer anstrengenden Wanderung wäre das Komfort... Stattdessen lieber für alle Gäste ein gemeinsamer Kühlschrank...tut auch etwas für die Ökobilanz...Kühlschrank im Zimmer war sehr laut.

Llegamos sobre las 16:10 ya que no dejan entrar hasta las 16:00,ya eso es un incordio.La entrada es fácil,con un codigo que te envían al móvil.La habitación sin más ,limpia y con TV.Nos tumbamos a descansar y de hecho abandonamos la habitación antes de las 17:00.Habian muchos ruidos como de movimiento de muebles o no sabíamos que y al no poder descansar decidimos irnos.No puedo opinar más ya que nuestra estancia fue desgraciadamente corta.
