Well I have to say that this is one of the best places I've stayed in for the price it was! I stayed with a friend of mine, and from the moment we arrived we immediately felt at home.

Great location (very close to the Aerobus from the airport and right in the center of town), staff (so friendly and helpful) and breakfast (not the typical boiled eggs and cornflakes...and for those on a budget, all guests have use of the kitchen and there's a great market just around the corner). And yes, a sign outside would be helpful,... More

The rooms are nice and clean and has what you can expect a central hostel to have. Comfortable common room, inspiration to seightseeing og breakfast opportunities. The hostel was impossible for us to find as it doesnt have any signs outside or a buzzer that worked. they told us that should be taken care of soon.

It pains me a bit to give this place such a low rating as it's just started up and the young owners and staff seem to be trying hard to make it work.
