Pros:

Não gostei

Cons:

É uma caixa de dormir. Pequena, ruim e difícil de usar. O banheiro é compartilhado por homens e mulheres e dá um pouco de medo

Pros:

really cool concept, you have plenty of showers, some food if you will catch some hunger and space to chill. whole place is really close to the metro so it’s easy to move around the city 🌃

Cons:

a place you'd rather choose for a short stay more than for a long trip, after a while you might get tired of the lack of space in the van

Pros:

Första kväll var mysig. Andra kväll var det fler som checkade in och stämningen förändrades till se sämre mer. Sängar var sköna. Stället var unikt och barnen kunde leka och spela spel.

Cons:

Att det inte fanns toa nära boendet utan en trappa ned. Dusch utrymme var så trångt.

Pros:

L’originalité de l’endroit, la balançoire (ma fille y a passé énormément de temps), la propreté des installations, la gentillesse du personnel, le petit déjeuner.
L’hôtel est un peu excentre mais grâce au métro on est dans le centre en 20min ce qui nous convenait parfaitement. De plus, il y a un réfrigérateur et un micro-ondes à disposition ce qui nous a permis de dîner sur place le soir.

Cons:

Si on veut vraiment trouver quelque chose, l’isolation phonique des tonneaux n’est pas top, mais durant notre séjour nos voisins étaient très calmes donc cela ne nous a pas gêné
