    As basic as it gets. If you're looking for a warm bed. It works. If you're looking for more, get a hotel.

    Lets start with the positive: modern and new hostel. The common area was spacious, luminous, confortable. The handed us towels wich was a nice touch. Breakfast was lovely, they had pancakes, yogourt and fruit cups… On the other hand, no elevators, so if you have big luggages it can be a challenge. The configuration of the room when there is 12 people in it, is not practical. There is not enough space, its lacking practical Space, hooks, shelves… Also, there was only two bathroom for 12 people on this floor. There were also very very nice. There was no where to get prepared. But they did provide hair dryer, straightener if needed. Walking distance to everything
