Stay away!

Terrible. Absolutely terrible... No AC, ditry and noisy. People are smoking inside and I found ashes in one of the drawers. Check in later than time for check in - the check in time was set to 15.30 and I was told to wait intil 16.00 because they were "cleaning" the room (the room and especially the bathroom was not cleaned at all!!!). Not posible to open any kind of window because the only window in the room was placed in the loft (good design when it's raining - be alert of water in the room if you have the window open while it's raining).

If anyone just needs to stay for the night, then this is ok, but it depends on the type of room. As some washrooms in a few rooms were not working, there was a lack of water in the toilets. Although they offered other washrooms to use, those that were near to the rooms were not working

Not worth it: out of the way and a drag

The hotel is difficult to get to and very out of the way of the city. The staff were sort of friendly and spoke English very well, but they were very unhelpful with guests. It was really pricy for the inconvenience. The room itself was standard, but not for the price you're paying. The wifi was quite bad too, only working in the lobby.

It was a nice property, but it would be better if they put roommates together based on age. We were with three older ladies who did not care for us and were rude to us. Going in, our roommates found out we only spoke English, but they were clearly talking about and complaining about us when we were showing common courtesy. They seemed to have been there a while too. They were very loud and did not care for us. Staff gave us our sheets and were never seen again, and we needed to find them to check out. We felt very uncomfortable in our room, and the bathrooms were disgusting. It was decent enough, but I would not suggest this hostel for young people traveling around.

Anything would be better

Please se attached pictures to see that we are not exaggerating. Where to even start. The room has earlier suffered heavy water damage, it wasnt cleaned before arrival because we found used candy wrappers. It is ant infested and has multiple ant catchers without much success. The floor is uneven of The water damage, The showerbooth is broken and leaking. You could only choose between scorching temperatures or no water at all. But The toilet actually worked without complaint and they recently installed a hairdryer. Oh, and the AC without a controller and out of reach worked but sounded like a giraffs last breaths. 0/10 would recommend, if I ever get a serious disease on my continuing travel, I know this place was The start of it.

Budget Accommodation

The place was really for the budget traveler. Extra for towels sheets. Several flights of stairs, not for the elderly such as us. No heating, we had to sleep with our clothes on to keep warm, no soap just an empty dispenser. There was a shared kitchen which was a plus.

Never book a room in this dirty place

This hostel is a scam. Very filthy and horrible place to stay. The room we got did not have a bathroom - we got keys from public bathroom instead. For our complains that the room does not look like the one on picture staff member responded that the picture was taken 5 years ago. For the complain that the furniture looks differently and it is basically different room came no answer. The reception, kitchen and relax area are dark and hostile - when you look up you find out that it was a car repair shop before and It has been changed to hostel for scamming tourist. After 1,5hour of trying to get a normal clean room we gave up and left for other place.
This was supposed to be the 3bed room - had 4 beds but totally different as in the pictures
The lock in the room was a joke
Our room didn’t get a bathroom - we got key from outside bathroom
Not really queen size bed I hoped for

Filthy mattress, paid for a room but it was downgraded with not partial refund. They charge you for sheets, for the locker, for the towel and they charge you for dobious tax, and you do not know in advance if you reserve online. The mattress does not have a cover and you can be exposed to catch something ugly. Can't believe it is allowed to stay open!

Although the staff was EXCELLENT the whole hostle experience sucked... I only needed 4 hours to shower and set my luggage down it ended up costing me more than a fancy hotel and they even tried to charge 12€ for the use of the shower and clean towels, it cost me 22€ from the train station and then 31€ from the hostle to the bus station 4 hours later plus a 10€ fee for late check-in due to the immigration stop between France and Italy that resulted in a 2 hour delay of my arrival. My advice is to beware of hostle and their hidden fees.. in my case a stay at 4 seasons may have been a better deal price and comfort wise, but the staff was amazing.
