KamilFamily with young children - 9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 462 reviewsThe terrace was nice to sit down. Lots of room downstairs. They offer free bikes as the hostel is located a bit of a distance from the center of town. They offer a laundromat you can use at a pretty cheap price. The lockers are in a separate room but are dusty and old. Our backpacks barely fit into them. The pod-beds gave a nice isolated feeling. The offered breakfast is sufficient.MathiasYoung couple

When you checkin it is the restaurant/bar on the main floor, then you go up the smal elevator to the rooms. We had the family room which worked great for the 4 of us. The room was very comfortable but the bunk beds for the kids didnt have linens. We asked and some were provided. Great location, good selection of beers downstairs, and food was pretty good. Easy to walk to/from the bus station.
