Excellent hostel. Location - 10-15 minutes to the main attractions. The hostel is clean, great room, good beds, sockets and individual lighting. Bath in the room, also clean and comfortable. Toilet on the floor. Breakfast is provided (boiled eggs, sausage, cheese, fruit, butter), coffee machine. Definitely recommend.

The front desk was very helpful. The water in the shower booth drain was getting hard to drain.

The reception doesn't seem to be open 24 hours, but you can check in at the bar even if you arrive late at night. The beds in the dormitory don't have numbers, so you have to find an empty one yourself. The beds were fine. However, one of the luggage racks was broken and couldn't be pulled out, and the other was placed in a place where it couldn't be pulled out no matter what you did due to the structure of the room, so neither of us could use it. I asked the reception if we could change rooms, but they said it was full, so we used the luggage room in the basement on the first night. On the second day, only one person in the room checked out, so we put both of our luggage in one luggage rack. Be careful, as the structure of room 31 where I stayed means that one person can't use the luggage rack when the room is full!

Overall, the stay was not too bad. If not for some inconveniences, I would have rated this hostel better. First, the nearest Metro exit was under renovation. As a result, I need to detour quite a fair bit to get into the Metro station. It is ok without luggage, but with luggage, it is much more challenging with cobblestone road. Second, this is the first hostel which I paid for twin room and was not provided with towel. While my app stated that the towel is included, the receptionist told me that I need to pay to rent the towel. A bit disappointed. Thankfully, I have my own beach towel.

The room is OK. It's nice to rent a clean and sanitary house at this price.

The front desk disappeared at 8pm and I had to wait in the lobby for an hour to check in. All other facilities are very good, there is luggage storage, the room and bathroom are clean and tidy, and it is a very comfortable stay.

The bar on the first floor is very lively, and I think it's perfect for party lovers. The rooms and bathrooms are relatively clean and comfortable. It's a shame that the shared kitchen only has one pot and no bowls or plates. The location is good, so it's easy to get to other spots.
