I loved this hostel! It is exceptionally clean & very secure -- the area is also safe. The beds, large & very comfortable... curtains, plugs, shelves AND each room with its own theme. Very spacious lockers, no lock needed. The showers, clean & great stream of water. The free coffee is very very good! The staff, very friendly, helpful & accommodating. The common space is spacious & relaxing. The kitchen is well-stocked. There is access to work spaces, for anyone needing to be in an online meeting. I so much enjoyed this hostel & I would absolutely stay there again! It's maybe 20 minutes to downtown with transport, very logical & easy to manage. Lots of cafes or food stores more or less in the area -- actually, it was nice to get out of the more touristy city center!

The owner was very hospitable and accomodating and the flat was really nice and peaceful! The city centre is about 40 minutes walking distance away or 4 stops on the tram/metro, so you can very easily get there. There is designated parking spot for the house and the area seems really safe, so no issues parking there!

The place was easy to locate and they were incredibly nice. They allowed me to do an early check-in, which was a lifesaver. Both the host and the person who cleaned rooms were kind and available. I went just the one day; but I'm saving the place in case I come back in the future.

Every staff member I met was very friendly and willing to help. I liked the coffee, that you can drink for free in the "living room". Also, the location is perfect near the city center and the central station. The price was very affordable, a great deal overall for the price.

Had a great time here. Well equipped apartment. Very clean, access was easy, great location, super kind and friendly hosts. As others have mentioned, yes, the shower and loo are outside the apartment but it’s not a big deal as they’re right next to it. Even if there’s a class, you don’t have to go through the yoga studio itself or something. With your door closed, you also won’t hear anything from the studio during sessions. Would definitely stay again!
