"Впечатления положительные. Останавливаюсь не первый год."

9.0

Спасибо администратору, пошла навстречу, заселила раньше положенного времени, разрешила на 4 дня оставить вещи. Очень приятная, вежливая девушка. Понравилось, что дают чистые полотенца, чистое постельное белье, делают каждый день влажну уборку. Даже котенка завели. :) В целом впечатления положительные. Останавливаюсь не первый год. Потрясающее место расположения в центре города, хороший персонал, удобная кухня и номера, нравится интерьер. Можно стирать и сушить вещи. Есть вай фай.

Думаю, что не помешал бы ремонт. В ванной пацарапан кафель, в туалете дырки в стенах на местах, где раньше висели крючки. Таблички с правилами пользования ванной и кухней в очень потрепанном состоянии.

"Staff noisy at night"

Good location.

Very bad run, lazy staff except the nice helpful girl, ugly room, not specially clean and in need of a deep renovation. The staff themselves were noisy in the night, never seen this before.

Absolut in Ordnung. Nicht das beste Hostel in dem ich je war, aber durchaus in Ordnung. Und für den Preis kann man nicht meckern. Die Bäder könnten nur mit etwas mehr Liebe behandelt werden. Der Rest des Hostels ist nämlich sehr hübsch dekoriert.

"Friendly staff, but rundown uncomfortable place"

4.0

The location is great, it is in the city center with a park and the Ascension cathedral close by. The staff was friendly and gracious enough to accommodate our last minute late night booking. The kitchen and common area are decent enough.

The dorm room is VERY HOT and doesn't have AC or proper ventilation. The windows don't open all the way and the fan doesn't really work. We had trouble sleeping at night due to the heat and suffocation. The bathrooms aren't very clean and the shower tap is broken. There is barely any hot water, so I took cold showers. Some of the hooks are broken. Kitchen utensils have dirty scaling due to the hard water and there is no filter for drinking water in the kitchen and you need to buy plastic water bottles. Overall, the place has seen better days and is now in a state of disrepair. The managers, though friendly, are not taking good care of the place even though they have been promising to rectify errors in all the review replies over the years. Nothing seems to have changed. With a little bit of maintenance and some air conditioning this place could be perfect.
