Great location and friendly staff. Unfortunately, the mattresses were super thin and uncomfortable. Would recommend for location and amenities but don’t expect to get a good sleep.

Extremely well located, which also means you will hear the night-life of neighboring streets. They also might be due for new mattresses

We felt very safe and welcomed at the property. We enjoyed the convenience of the grocery store next door, the laundry services and comfort of the room and shared living/dining quarters.
The dining quarters could be better equipped with cutlery, bowls, plates, paper towel etc… the bathrooms could have some hand soap. Shower gels and such are available at check in.
The construction in the area is loud and begins early each day around 7am.
All in all a good stay.

The hostel is good. Excellent location.
A kitchen is equipped with two big fridges, stove, etc.
It can be noisy.
Room was very basic student accomodation. No TV and no extras. Very clean but claustrophobically small. One double bed so only really suitable for couples. Ideal location so served its purpose

Very compact room great for one but for 2 very small
It’s the university area and it’s a single dormitory room. No A/C and very small twin bed not fit for two. If you’re under thirty you’ll like the area, over thirty it recommend another hotel

Only thing i would add is a hairdryer in the rooms, i would also like to add that checkout is too early compared to check-in.
Overall the place is great and warm.

These are dorm rooms that are occupied for the summer. If you’re up for roughing just a little bit it’s a good deal!

We had a great stay here, until our final night when lots of noisy guests started to come and go at 3am until 6am!!
This was advertised as an aparthotel. This is Infact a student dorm!! Shared kitchen though it comes across as your own kitchen on the Expedia advertisement. Used shampoo and conditioner in bathroom and no bag for the one garbage can. Horribly humid and hot.

This is not so much a hotel but a hostel in a sketchy neighbourhood. Loud, dirty room, and lots of damage in the room.
Drunken fights in the courtyard in the middle of the night too made for a rough stay.
