–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Street noise can be an issue — Some guests found outside noise disruptive, so requesting a room at the back of the hostel is advisable.
- Wi-Fi and some amenities cost extra — Internet access is not included in the room rate – €1 per hour or €5 for five days. A one-time €2 fee applies for linen and towels.
- No soap provided in showers — While bathrooms are kept clean, guests need to bring their own toiletries as shower gel is not supplied.
- Basic breakfast for the price — The €5 buffet covers continental basics but isn't lavish – it includes yoghurt, cereal, bread, cheese, and pastries.

Staff were incredibly friendly, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The hostel felt safe with 24-hour security and a diverse mix of guests. The bike rental was handy, and there were plenty of bars, restaurants, and shops nearby. Bathrooms were spacious and never crowded. The converted factory design is impressive, and the breakfast spread was delicious. I'll definitely be back.”
