Could be great but…

10am checkout is crazy. I went to the toilet, was locked out of my pod, room etc at 10.01am. Had to go into the street barely clothed, to go to the bar next door to gain access to my stuff. Took 30 minutes and two visits. Wet socks aside, 11am is pretty standard, but not giving even 10 minutes grace is unhelpful.

The staff were very friendly. Check in and check out was super easy. The location was perfect. A very short walk to the city center and a host of restaurants and shops. The thing I didn't like was it was super noisy. Partying all night, until 0300-0400 in the a.m. Also, the bathroom set up was absolutely ridiculous. Super small and the shower head was located in the middle of the bathroom, above the sink and the toilet, so once you showered everything was wet. Although the location was perfect and the staff were friendly, the hostel itself was average. I think it's a good choice for single travelers who are only staying a day or two, but not for couples or those staying more longer than a couple of days.

I booked capsule for 2, it was clean and decent. However it is not well thought out not providing locker nearby of the capsule. All you belongings must go inside where you sleep, including coat bags etc… lockers are available downstairs in the bar (for a small fee I guess) but it is not convenient at all. Capsules are clean but noisy, you can hear every move of your neighbours :D including noises from the street. Toilets and showers quite clean, but they get dirty and busy especially in the morning, when they are being cleaned in most busy time. Nice bar and staff downstairs! Overall experience - ok, but would not stay there again.

Can’t beat the location. Even for a hostel this was the most minimal, kind of grimy property I have ever stayed at. We booked a private bathroom, and the shower was a trickle from a shower head above the toilet and sink. The toilet paper had to be taken out of the space, so it didn’t get soaked when showering. The overhead light was also burned out. It was a bit like camping.

Staff was very nice and friendly. Many good restaurants and cafes close by Walkable to museums, tivoli, parks, shopping etc. Was very loud in the evening sometimes until 3:00/4:00 in the morning - my room was facing the street. I used a white noise app and that helped alot.

Stayed in the private single room with bunk bed. The room was more than enough for one person. Excellent location to explore the city, especially if you're only staying a couple of days. I was on the first floor and could hear everything going on in the square and bar downstairs, very loud music until 5am most nights. Ask for a room on upper floors if you want to avoid the ruckus.

Do not stay here. After booking I sent a message to Hostel asking for available check-in hours because I was informed there’s no late check-in, but not informed what time is late. I never received a response from Hostel, even after following up with another message. Reception is at the back of the bar, but this is not clear. Reception is not staffed anyway; kiosks for self check-in. Hostel advertises elevator and 6 floor building. However, you must go up 5 steps before you can access the elevator and then it goes only to the 5th floor, not 6th. Elevator inspection ticket expired May 2025. Hostel claims they have a kitchen, but it consists of a few dishes (plates, no bowls, glasses, no mugs, a few utensils) and a couple refrigerators. Beware: half the dishes in clean stack are dirty. I found food stuck on “clean” plates every morning I was here. No sink in “kitchen” so if you need to wash your hands or food, you must go upstairs to the bar bathroom for closest sink. Only 2 toilets, 2 sinks, and 3 showers for over 36 people on the floor. Safety issue:!! Everyone intuitively turns the door handle to get out of the room. That does not work. You need to turn the little knob above the handle - in the opposite direction than is intuitive- to get out of the room. There should be a label informing people of this. There are signs in the bathroom that say “we’re here to help. Contact us on WhatsApp at this number“. The number is not on WhatsApp!!!
