    Great Thanksgiving experience! the hostel offered complimentary pumpkin pie and turkey with all the fixings, which was a nice surprise. the location was perfect for exploring the city center and the nearby bars and restaurants. the staff was friendly and helpful in providing recommendations for local attractions, and the hostel organized fun events and pub crawls every night.

    There were some noisy guests who kept us up at night, but that's to be expected in a busy hostel environment. It would have been nice if the reception was open 24/7 to address any issues that arose.

    I had a fantastic time at this hotel. the location couldn't be better - just a short walk from both the bus and train stations. Secondly, the hostel offered a wide range of activities, from pub crawls to canal cruises, ensuring that there was always something fun to do. Lastly, the staff were incredibly friendly and provided great recommendations for places to eat and things to see. All in all, a wonderful experience!

    The hostel was located in a great spot just a few minutes away from the best areas to visit around the city. , during the Christmas season, the staff provided us with hot cocoa and cookie treats every night, which was a really nice touch to make us feel festive. Lastly, the beds were quite comfortable, allowing us to have a good rest after a day of exploration.

    The showers were a bit of a letdown, as they didn't consistently provide hot water for everyone in the morning. the luggage storage area was quite small and cramped, which made it difficult to maneuver around and find your things, especially during the busy holiday period.

    This hotel was conveniently located in the heart of the city, making it easy to walk to all the sights. The staff were friendly and helpful, providing me with great recommendations for things to do in the area. The hotel facilities were great, especially the cleanliness of the rooms which was excellent. Transportation was also not an issue as it was situated very close to the bus station.

    There was nothing I didn't like.

    Helpful staff with thorough and accurate information. Late check-in assistance for arrivals after 23.00. Great common rooms and security measures. Beds with curtains, individual lamps, and sockets. Quiet dorm room facing a courtyard. Plenty of showers and toilets. Fun and helpful staff, great atmosphere. Convenient location.

    Cannot find any fault.

    The hostel is located in the heart of the city, so close to everything in the old town. It's within walking distance to the best clubs and bars, and the bus stop for the airport is only a few minutes away. the staff are friendly and always happy to help. the rooms are clean and comfortable, with individual lights and charging points for each bed.

    The hostel doesn't provide non-alcoholic drinks on arrival like some guests would prefer, which is a small inconvenience for those who don't drink alcohol.
