I liked the location, short walk to restaurants I didn't like the group of people they brought on a bus, they were extremely loud, and, I couldn't sleep. It was awful.

BEST hostel I have ever stayed in. Clean, safe, large. and it always smelled like fresh brownies in the oven. Very good breakfast. Many outlets for charging devices. The only negative is there was no lock on the main door or my room door. Anyone could walk in.

La atención es excelente. Mi única crítica es para la cama, que estaba un poco vieja y con los resortes vencidos. Todo lo demás, para recomendar. Muy bueno!

Room was clean but a little bit small for 2 People. Expecialy for luggage. Building is a little bit more acustic. You hear all quarrel of your neighbours and move in and out other tourists. But staff is very helpful and kind.
