I always choose this place for my stay. The staff helped me with directions at my first stay. It suits me perfectly, with Wi-Fi, shared kitchen, laundry, flat-screen TV. I'm coming back for Christmas. No regrets here.

We had an amazing stay at this hostel in the heart of town. the room was perfect, with its own shower and toilet. the owner went above and beyond to make us feel at home, even providing a personal shuttle to the airport. We were pleasantly surprised by the high-speed internet, which was included in our stay. the single bedroom was exceptionally nice, equipped with a TV, coffee making facilities, and a very comfortable bed. the shower was great, and we enjoyed relaxing in the comfortable chair. the host was super friendly and even gave us a ride to the airport in the morning.
It was a fantastic experience.

We had a great stay at this hotel. The central location was a big plus for us, making it easy to explore the city without needing transportation. The double rooms were well equipped, providing amenities such as a private bathroom, TV, and a small fridge. We appreciated the effort that was put into these individual rooms. The staff was polite and accommodating, ensuring that our needs were met. the hotel had a clean and tidy atmosphere, providing a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
Noise was an issue, especially on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. If you are a light sleeper, it may be challenging to get a good night's rest in the front cheaper rooms.

The room was pleasant and well-lit. The manager was helpful, fixing the light and providing elastic for broken sandals. The hotel had tight security with multiple locked doors. Unfortunately, breakfast was not included. a safe and accommodating place to stay.

The kitchen facilities were spacious and clean, making it easy for multiple people to cook at the same time. The common sitting area was also a great place to relax, with a small library full of books to choose from. the WIFI worked well, allowing me to stay connected during my stay.
The noise from the nightclub below was unbearable, even on weeknights. It was extremely loud and made it nearly impossible to get a good night's sleep.
