Great location. What could be better - AC was weak, didn’t cool down the room to the comfortable level
Andrey, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very well located. Easy access to Metro and short walk to walking city tours. Breakfast very good and abundant. Dryer is upon request €20. Totally recommended.

10/10 Exceptional

Had a private double room. We loved our slightly unusual triangle-shaped room, it was spotlessly clean and really comfortable. This place is really really well designed, and the location is perfect. The Jacuzzis on the roof were closed with no notice which was a shame, but that doesn't change the fact that this is a fantastic place to stay. We'll definitely be back.
Samuel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic first time at the hostel. In general was great, for the location and all the facilities for move around. Maybe they can improve some diferentes things like the don’t say anything about the towel or they haven’t tv, etc., the worst part it’s the noise of the others, especially when they are turn back after a party.
Alejandr, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Customer service is not so good They accommodate lots and lots of teenagers on a camp or something. Some of the teens seems like they had coccaine or something that the yell bang the doors run in the hall way in the middle of the night and day. Really loud and noisy place. Very very busy
