Okay, aber werde nicht wiederkommen
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, die Mitarbeitenden freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Es ist ein günstiges Hostel, dementsprechend waren die Erwartungen wirklich nicht hoch. A er dass nicht nur die Dusche voller Schimmel war, sondern auch die Fensterdichtungen, war dann doch zu viel. Generell war es unheimlich feucht im Zimmer, die Fenster waren komplett beschlagen von innen. Stoßlüften geht zwar gut, aber durch die laute Umgebung kann man dann auch nicht wirklich mit offenem Fenster schlafen.

Frühstück war leider auch wirklich wirklich enttäuschend (und das obwohl wir wirklich keine hohen Ansprüche an ein Hostel Frühstück stellen). Trockene Brötchen, eine Sorte Käse, eine Sorte Wurst. Irgendwo gab es Obst, aber nicht mal Gemüse. Zwei Sorten Marmelade. Dafür waren die 15€ pP dann doch zu viel.

In Ordnung für einen Kurzaufenthalt
Pros:

Das Zimmer im siebten Stockwerk war sauber und hatte sehr vielen Ablagen. Die Matratzen der Betten waren sehr gut. An der Bar im Erdgeschoss bekommt man tatsächlich einen hand-gemixten, ausgezeichneten Pinacolada.

Cons:

Die Zimmer zur Straßenseite raus sind sehr laut, auch dann, wenn man alle Fenster geschlossen hat. Es gibt auf dem Zimmer pro Person nur ein kleines Handtuch. Größere Handtücher kann man gegen Gebühr erhalten. Die Aufzüge sind sehr klein, weswegen man sehr lange warten muss. Der Frühstücksraum ist im Keller und dadurch sehr dunkel und nicht sehr ansprechend. Am einzigen Pancake Automat für mehrere 100 Menschen kann es durchaus mal 30 min dauern bis man an der Reihe ist.
