Great for a short stay in Nicosia!

The stay was great. The staff were super helpful and accommodating, and there is a very positive vibe in the whole hostel. Rooftop seating area makes for a really nice place to socialise with others staying at the hostel. Shared bathroom facilities are kept impeccably clean also.

Ich hatte einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt in diesem Hostel. Das Bett war bequem und bot eine gute Nachtruhe. Die Toiletten und Duschen waren stets sauber, was ich sehr geschätzt habe. Besonders gefallen hat mir der schöne Ausblick vom Balkon – perfekt, um den Tag entspannt ausklingen zu lassen. Die Lage ist ideal: zentral in Nikosia gelegen, sodass man die Altstadt und viele Sehenswürdigkeiten gut zu Fuß erreichen kann. Insgesamt ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Ich würde wiederkommen!

Im Wesentlichen eine gute Unterkunft. Ich habe keine Mängel in der Sauberkeit festgestellt. Im Zimmer gibt es einen mittelgroßen Fach, das persönlich zugewiesen wird und abgeschlossen werden kann. Darüberhinaus gibt es eine gut ausgestattete Küche, die durch alle genutzt werden kann, sowie eine Terasse mit Sitzgelegenheiten. Insgesamt gibt es zwei Badräume inklusive je ein WC und Waschbecken und ein separater WC. Die Badräume sind klein. Zwar ist das beim Duschen kein Problem, aber für die WCs ist kaum noch Platz vorhanden. Das ist mein einziger Kritikpunkt, den ich aber etwas einschränken muss. Der Raum mit dem separaten WC weist eine durchschnittliche Größe auf. Der Mitarbeiter ist sehr freundlich und übertraf meine Erwartungen. Man wird in die Unterkunft eingeführt und erhält Hinweise zum Busverkehr in die Stadt. Ich empfehle die Unterkunft weiter.

The hostel is clean, the staff is very kind, and the accomodations are ok. Not so far from city center, around 10/15 minutes walking from old town there and in a safe zone.
