Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • No quiet retreat — The hostel is central but in a 'busy area,' so street noise may be a factor for light sleepers.
  • Basic dorm-only rooms — All accommodation is dormitory style with no private options, so those seeking solitude or privacy will need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — If your arrival is later than 23:59, you may need to arrange alternative plans, as the official check-in closes then.
  • Adults-only policy — The hostel does not accommodate children, which may not suit families traveling with younger kids.
  • No pets allowed — Travelers with pets won't be able to bring them along, as the policy is strict.
