Posizione, letto comodo, disponibilità dello staff e costo della camera con due letti

Pochi bagni, in quasi tutti i piani, c’era un bagno non funzionante. L’odore sgradevole nella cucina

Centrally located hostel with luggage storage facility

9.0

Location is good, 4 minutes from the station and on the main road. The bathrooms were separate from toilets and the showers had additional space to change. The (free) luggage storage facility after check out was very useful. The reception is always manned and the staff were very helpful. The room is spacious and so are the corridors.

The lock on the door should be fixed, it was very hard to open. The beds could have curtains for privacy. Each bed could have a reading light. The room also could do with a fan. The toilet lids kept falling down when you sit down on the toilet. Sockets need to be fixed.
