Many facilities like the supermarket downstairs, luggage rooms, fully equiped kitchen and even if you check-out you can still use the commom areas. My overal experience was very good. Some could say it is a little to far from the city center, but it is next to the hippest part of the town, where there are many bars, restaurants, very often cheaper than in the city center.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The hostel is incredibly clean, organized and well equipped. Great location, close to the train station and walking distance to the main tourist atractions. The pre-checking is super good and cheers to the staff for the lovely letter and clear instructions. Probably one of the best hostels that I've ever been, congrats.

This must be our 5th or 6th stay at CheapSleep. The place is squeaky clean and offers everything one needs from a youth hostel. We stayed in a very comfy private room, the shared showers and toilets were extremely clean. The bus stop for the public airport bus is just a 2min walk away and the 24/7 supermarket in the same building comes in handy. Great value!

Price was good valve for a tight budget & the room was secure with passkey, which meant I could leave belongings safely behind whilst out and about. It was clean and had good facilities for a hostel.
