Pros: It was my first experience at a hostel and I was afraid it would be dirty or noisy. However the hostel was really above my expectations - the place was clean, tidy, the personnel was friendly and the breakfast was nice. Overall much more than I expected for the price, I can only recommend this hostel - don't hesitate even if you've never done it :)

5,0 Okay
Pros: Good parking possibilities- it is worth buing the parking spot. Nice people on site. Once someone is in the reception...
Cons: Random people sleeping on the floor on the corridor. Slow answers. Lack of flexibility. Noone on site to help with random situations. Should be advertised on some school pages, not booking.com since it does not meet the minimum standards. Also, ask google to block the possibility to arrive on different hours. It is really confusing and does not fulfill the needs of business/private travellers.

Pros: cleen rooms, private parking, nice personal
Cons: wifi connection is very very poor at the rooms. I stayed here three times and every time the wifi connection was almost unusable.
