the hotel has a good location, all major sights are around. the room is neat and has separated shared bathroom. The only drawback is that it may be a little noisy outside during nights.

I didn’t love my stay here, even though everything was clean and the staff were lovely. I stayed in a 12 bed mixed dorm, with a very very slow to close squeaky door. With the usual people coming and going throughout the night, this made for a few really terrible nights of sleep. I mentioned it to reception who seemed like it was out of their hands to fix- pack earplugs for your stay here! Otherwise no issues at all, and very well located.

Not too bad. Toilets could’ve been better cleaned. It can get noisy, especially if you’re on the window side.

The front desk arranged to go to another branch 300 meters away. The next morning, I was given a free breakfast voucher and a plastic coin for a luggage storage box, which was worth 5.5 sticks in total. I troubled the guests and compensated them appropriately. It was tolerant.
