    As young people, we loved the friendly and accommodating team at the hostel. Their fluent English made communication easy, and they were like a little family. the location is perfect, right by the main square, and the building itself is like an oasis in the middle of the noisy city. the rooms are comfortable and clean, with a chilled vibe. the breakfast was a pleasant surprise, always fresh and different each day. the spacious common areas gave us plenty of places to hang out and meet other travelers. a super enjoyable place for young people.

    Felt very lucky, no complaints at all.

    I recently stayed at a wonderful hostel in the city center for a few days. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen and living room area with a chimney were great for relaxing and socializing. The beds were comfortable and spacious, ensuring a good night's sleep. Additionally, the hostel had a fantastic rooftop with breathtaking views of the main square. It's conveniently located close to shops and major historic spots, making it easy to explore the city. The staff and managers were multilingual, and there was even a ping pong table in the garden to unwind.

    Would recommend this hotel.

    Great atmosphere and friendly staff made for a fun and enjoyable stay. The hostel had clean rooms and comfortable beds.- Fantastic location near restaurants, bars, and other amenities.

    The cleaning staff could be rude and wake guests up early in the morning, even if they had booked for multiple days. The check-out time of 10:30 AM was too early and caused inconvenience for many travelers.

    I had such an incredible time at this hostel! The staff were so knowledgable and generous with their time, always going above and beyond to make sure I had an amazing stay. They even let me switch rooms to one that smelled better and gave me a discount. The homemade apple pie they shared was absolutely delicious. They were so helpful, carrying my suitcase and even walking me to the bus when it was time to leave. I can't recommend this place enough for its friendly atmosphere and fantastic location near all the sights. Super accommodating and welcoming!

It's easily accessible from the port and the peaceful garden is perfect for relaxing in the evenings.

    The common area and the kitchen were spacious and well-designed. the staff were helpful and friendly, adding to the positive atmosphere.

    The bed was uncomfortable and the room looked like it was falling apart. the bathrooms were in serious need of upgrades.

    Located in the very center of the city, this hostel offers convenience at its best. With everything close by, you won't have to go far to find what you need. the staff are friendly and always available for a chat, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. the rooms are clean and comfortable, with the option of a small heater provided during colder months.

    The dorm rooms can get quite hot during the summer, and the noise from the fan can be disruptive at night.
