I appreciated the security of the building, and I could tell parts had been recently renovated. It didn’t have as much community as I’m used to with hostels, but it was a fine place to crash after a long day out!

The room I stayed in was nice and clean but the outside traffic noise kept me up most of the night so the rooms could be better insulated against traffic noise the price of the room was very expensive for a old hostel building! Otherwise not economically best valve if you are looking for a separate room!

I stayed in a bunk bed private room for 2 people. The room was small but clean. The bathroom is shared with other guests although I seldom saw anyone during my 2 night stay. It is close to city center. It also provides simple Continental breakfast. Storing luggage will charge you eight euros. It was an ok stay.
