This hostel is spread over two floors and has a large communal area in both. Upstairs is a long thin area with lots of tables and seating and a small kitchen with fridges to store your food and drink. Downstairs is square and next to the reception and bar. The rooms also come off of the communal areas which is rather weird as you have to walk past everyone to get to the showers and toilets...not to everyone's liking! These facilities were okay and were cleaned every day, however, the showers haven't been kept clean from mould which isn't very hygienic. The showers downstairs where my room was had five of them in a line in one room and as such meant that there were two rooms for the different sexes. There was ample space in my room and the lockers were great. They operate an all in one key card system for the front door, your room door and the locker which makes it very easy for you. Inside the room each bunk had a night light and socket but no privacy curtain. The staff were multi nationals and all of them were friendly and helpful. There's not a great deal around the hotel but there is a twenty four hour supermarket next door which is handy. It's also very easy to get the airport bus to the hostel as it stops just a five minute walk away. The hostel location does require you to use transport to see the tourist sites but with bus and tram stops on the doorstep this isn't a problem. Top tip: Download the HSL app and buy your tickets on it before getting on the bus at the airport. There's a range of different tickets on there depending on your needs. The breakfast all you can eat buffet was excellent with many different choices of food and drink. Top tip: Buy your breakfast with your booking as it's cheaper than buying it when you get to the hostel.

“VERY CHEAP”

The only problem of this hostel are the noises at night. There are a lot of people that snore very heavy and other they tidy up they room at 2am. This… more

“I'd stay there again”

Low cost, decent beds and an appreciable layout (compartments within the rooms). Neat building, friendly staff - only wish there was no alcohol on site, that the safe and cozy atmosphere would be more prevalent. Staffed 24/7 which makes it great for emergency landings and late-night arrivals - all … more

Low cost, decent beds and an appreciable layout (compartments within the rooms). Neat building, friendly staff - only wish there was no alcohol on site, that the safe and cozy atmosphere would be more prevalent. Staffed 24/7 which makes it great for emergency landings and late-night arrivals - all of that at a very accommodative price.
