    Fantastic location next to train. Friendly staff and meticulous facility. Everything seemed super clean. I would advise to bring a towel since they don’t provide but they do rent them so that’s an option too. But very impressed with the location...

    This is one of the most charming, cleanest, safest, and friendliest backpacking hostels I've ever stayed at. The staff was so helpful and obliging. The beds were clean and the storage secure. I stayed here on a whim after forgetting to plan one...
