- Avg. price/night: $91.748.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 1,721 reviewsThe cleaning inside was impeccable. The rooms and bathroom are very comfortable. What I more like is the plugs next to the bed and every bed, even the upper bunk beds, have a little table. Also it's very safe and every bed has a locker for luggage. When I arrived there wasn't any staff working so I can not judge.

TomaszSolo traveler - Avg. price/night: $91.748.5Scored 8.5Very GoodRated very good· 1,721 reviewsNice self-check-in hostel near highway no. 1. Good beds with enough sockets. Each bed in the dormitory has its own small locker with key. Nice that the doors had a code lock, don't worry about forgetting your room key. The lounches didn't invite you to sit there, it looked like a waiting room. Fortunately, you could also sit outside in the garden.MarianneSolo traveler
