Amazing property. It is over a metro line, so there is a little vibration/noise when the train runs. Only negative. Staff is excellent and property is very clean. Rooms and bed are new and clean. Good mattresses.

Die Unterkunft ist super zentral und man kann einige Sehenswürdigkeiten super zu Fuß erreichen. Es war sauber und auch die geteilte Küche wurde stehst ordentlich hinterlassen. Das Fenster war leider sehr schwer zu schließen, weswegen es Abzug bei der Unterkunft gibt, sonst hat es uns sehr gut gefallen.

Wir hatten ein Dreibettzimmer mit einer Terrasse/Zubau und waren super zufrieden, das Zimmer war nicht direkt im Hostel, wo die Schlafsäle sind, sondern neben an und dort war es sehr ruhig und wir hatten genügend Platz. Alles was man benötigt war da, aber unser Highlight war der im Zimmer gelegende Zubau mit Glasfronten zum öffnen, wo man die Abende perfekt verbringen konnte. Öffentliche Anbindung war perfekt, wir würden immer wieder buchen.

The place location is good and clean. What bothered me most was because it doesn't tell you that the private bathroom aren't attached to the room, you have to walk to use it, . Everything else is nice
