Very central accomodation with a lift/elevator.

Very basic accomodation and very very central. There is an elevator which is a big bonus. Very close to the King's Palace and the Opera Theatre. Windows are double glazed so very little noise comes from outside. Receptionists were very welcoming

.Problematic

The hostal itself was good. However, there was construction that began at approximately 9 a.m. each morning during our two night stay, which made it impossible to sleep late.

Liked: Staff & service

Noisy and overpriced.

The staff were lovely and the location was great but that’s where it stops. The room was well overpriced even for a major city. The bathroom was tiny and there was a smell that was present in the bathroom every morning. The bathroom sink was tiny. The beds were ok, pillows very hard. There were no amenities such as a kettle. The Hostal was very noisey through the night and the corridor light came on frequently. The walls were very thin and you could hear the next room. Overnight stay only for convenience. However, on the upside there was restaurants and shops all around and tourist spots were within easy walking distance.

Very nice hotel. Personally, I thought it looked a lot cuter and more updated in person than the pictures represented. Friendly staff. Room was comfortable and cozy with a balcony overlooking the views. Only issue was it was difficult to find upon first arrival, so more instruction on where to go would have made it easier. I would definitely stay again and recommend to friends!

Great location, service and room

The location is great, center to a lot of places and to metro stations. The room was clean and comfortable. The employees always at service and happy to serve. The only thing to improve is the bathroom. It is very small on the toilet space, a large person would not be able to seat. Also, it needs a place inside the shower to put the soap and shampoo.

When we entered the hostel, a gentleman around 55 years old welcomed us at the door. He took us to our room and while examining the room, there were 3 or 4 hairs on the pillow, I asked him to change it, he accepted. It was disgusting to see this sight. Since I saw a hair on the pillow, I asked him to change the sheets because I lost my trust, they had obviously not been washed. The gentleman got really angry and said in a very loud voice that he would not do this and that the sheets were clean. He was very aggressive, but we saw disgraceful hairs on the pillow, he raised his voice when he should have apologized. The hygiene was terrible. The only good thing about the hostel is its location. It was a bad experience.
