Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Location may require transport — While the hostel is in a commercial area with restaurants and a supermarket nearby, it's not in the city center. Guests note it's well-connected by bus, but walking to central attractions may take time.
  • Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight may not be accommodated. Guests arriving later should plan accordingly.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the hostel does not permit animals on site.
  • Budget dormitory style — The accommodations are dormitory-style with shared rooms, which means less privacy than a private hotel room. While curtains on bunks offer some seclusion, it's not suitable for those seeking a fully private stay.
