La ubicación es muy buena y el lugar es bastante relajado

− Quizás tener acceso a un microondas o una nevera sería de utlilidad

Generally a very pleasant experience

6.0

The staff were super helpful and friendly. Common areas look cool and comfortable. The vibe in the hostel was really nice, and generally residents tried to respect each other's privacy and really tried to be quiet in the room, even when packing.

− Mostly minor details: I was allergic to something in the bunk bed and woke up increasingly swollen every morning, which is very unusual, as I am not allergic. There seemed to be an issue with plumbing in my room - there was an unpleasant smell coming from the drain in the showers. You could faintly hear the bar at night which was two floors down, possibly through the window because all windows face the courtyard where people smoke and hang around.

7.0

All the staff members I interacted with were super nice, the beds were comfortable and doors didnt make noise. Locations is also nice.

− During my two day visit, the shared room was not cleaned. The toilet floor was dirty and the bathroom floor was constantly wet. Also the breakfast bufet seems to offer plenty of options, but the food was not really that good and coffee was the worst I had in a long time.
