Un hostel avec de beaux espaces communs ! Cependant, on ne vous écoute pas. On avait réservé une chambre pour 3 personnes et on nous a mis dans un dortoir de 4 car apparemment la chambre n’était pas dispo. On nous a assuré qu’on ne serait que deux dans la chambre mais chaque soir ils essayaient de mettre des personnes dans notre chambre ! On a également fait une lessive en demandant expressément de ne pas sécher le linge à la machine. Ils ne l’ont pas fait. Bref, un hostel qui pourrait être super mais gâché par la non écoute du personnel.

Boa hospedagem.
O staff é bem atencioso, com um bom café da manhã. Fomos alocados num espaço com três camas, que fica acima dos outros espaços. Chegamos por volta de 22h30 mas a cama ainda não tinha sido arrumada para nos recebermos. E nós mesmos arrumamos a cama e não tem janela. Os espaços de uso comum são muito bons e amplos, a música ambiente deixa mais agradável. A cozinha, no entanto, não tem tantas panelas assim e, as que existem, estão muito velhas. Não há marcação de nome nas comidas deixadas na geladeira, o que pode ser um problema.

It’s not bad as a budget hostel, I never did fins the bathrooms, and the breakfast isn’t. You can pay for the upgraded breakfast but I’d suggest making your own or just going out. All in all it’s ok for the price you pay.

Nunca más!
Feo, sucio y alejado. Arañas en las habitaciones, no hay cubiertos en la cocina, sabanas viejas y con olor a humedad. Ducha incomoda, no tenia agua caliente y salía poco. Incluía desayuno el cual no pude usar porque no lo pusieron a tiempo.

Good hostel for a few nights stay
Good hostel. Breakfast is decent. Liked the room and surroundings. Surprisingly very quite though, like people don't mingle. Wonder if it's because the location is longer walk from downtown area and it wasn't at full occupancy.

Dekseltjes met jam
Het gebouw is prima. De keuken zeer ruim, maar slecht uitgerust. Bestek moet je bij de balie gaan ophalen. Het is nog allemaal jaren 80 daar. Ik ben 1 meter 90 en mijn voeten hingen over het smalle kinderbed. De ontbijtruimte is heel gezellig, maar het ontbijt is matig. Je krijgt jam op een omgedraaid dekseltje. Roerei is 1 eitje gekluts in een kommetje en koud. Wat het bijzonder maakt is de zeer goede hulp van de 2 mannen aan de balie bij het regelen van excursies. Het ligt in een straat die tot een achterstandsgebied gerekend kan worden. Voor het geld geen slechte keuze. We zaten 1 dag zonder water, maar dat konden ze ook niet helpen.
