I booked one of the pods, but it felt like a coffin as the ventilation system barely worked and was not properly sound proofed. Next to the pod room, there is some sort of a club, so the noise is unbearable.

Disliked: Staff & service
The rooms where generally okay not amazing the blinds didn’t close all the way and if you were on the top bunk you didn’t not have a privacy curtain for changing or light. We had multiple male stuff come into our room unaccompanied by females as well as they did not knock or acknowledge they were coming in the room. There is no lounge area to meet people or hang out it must be at the cafe and you must purchase something from it. I recommend paying for the breakfast in the morning it is very well done. The female staff were amazing I greatly appreciated them. The door in our room was linked to a glass room which was locked but was still open so we had a breeze the entire night. I recommend a different hostel closer to the central

Bit annoying that you have to pay for towels to use, if I’d have know I’d have brought my own. €6 per person is asking way too much.
