Rated 6.9 out of 10 by 83 guests who stayed here.
Cozy and colorful building and very comfortable beds. It was quite and perfect for a good rest.
Cosy private room. Close to transport.
Property was very dirty
Dirty and noisy people
The staff was very nice
The common areas were incredibly used and dirty. The room was small, and our bed was not good. It is an okay option even though I find it very expensive in comparison with what iti offers.
Really nice friendly staff, couldn't be nice, laid back and relaxed place, handy to train, depends on what you like, but perfect for my needs, suit digital nomads or students.
