Pros:

It's just not worth it. Very uncomfortable cots, not beds. We didn't have enough toilet paper. And paying 5 euro to use a towel? Ridiculous.

I would not recommend this place as there are drunk people making noise in the middle of the night and shouting where others were sleeping from 11pm till 3am

Pros:

Super great spot for travellers of all ages (and all ages there). Clean and comfortable rooms with your own USB port and reading light and curtain for some privacy. Stayed in a four bed female dorm. We had our own bathroom in the room. The location was phenomenal in the city and there is food and drinks downstairs. Only downside no kitchen to put things in a fridge as no outside food or drinks is allowed. The night I was there there was live music he was so good! I am staying again at the end of my trip. Will definitely stay here always and great value for money. Bring a lock you can lock your things in a cupboard in the room if you have a small lock with you

I liked that the property was so close to the south side of the city. I did not like that there was a hallway undergoing renovations that no one told us about.
