Gerard, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great hostel.
Great hostel located in the center of old city, walking distance to everything. Our family of 5 rented an entire dorm room of 4 bunk beds and it was great. Each had a private curtain to pull and had 2 private showers and toilets in the room. A little loud in terms of thin walls and noisy floor when walking, but nothing a pair of ear plugs could not fix for light sleepers. Great bar attached made for a very fun place to hang out.

We just needed to stay there for the night and get going on a tour in the morning - early, so it was cheap, and perfect, exactly what we expected.

10/10 Exceptional

It was perfect as a reasonably priced late booking compared to extortionate hotel prices if all you were looking for was a bed and a shower. I was lucky to get a bunk room for 4 on my own
