Pros:

Очень уютный, приличный хостел. Номер двухместный был хороший, стильный, удобные кровати, для хостела очень приличный! завтрак скромный, но за эти деньги - приемлимо. Отличная музыка играет на первом этаже. Хозяевам - спасибо! Рекомендуем!

Cons:

Тусклый свет в комнате.

Clean. Comfortable. A wonderful stay with a great location.
Pros:

Both host were welcoming and helpful. I spent one evening chatting with the lady while having a beer and meeting new people. She was so sweet in sharing things about her life. The breakfast was delicious and the beds were very comfortable compared to other hostels I’ve stayed in. They have a great common area for conversations and meeting others. Cleaning services after someone checks out is quick, so you always feel comfortable.

Cons:

It’s a small dislike- towels are for rent. This was my first time experiencing this in a hostel, but the cost is very low to do so.
