Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great clean room; friendly staff although checkin required using one's phone in the lobby to list party details while staff waited for you to do that; nice variety of cold foods for breakfast with 1 or 2 hot items, but it was the same every day (we were there 4 days). Hot cereal, more fruit choices would have been nice; maybe scrambled eggs. It's close to the transit options, although not the cleanest part of town. But we felt safe and were quite happy with our stay. We would stay again.

The room was clean, had everything we needed. There is a nice lounge to stay in and even a small area for kids that our kids loved. Having a small kitchen helped so much. The laundry was easy to use and very convenient. The location is great because it is right next to a mall and the main train station.

Location was fantastic as we were travelling Europe by train. Easy walkable distance to the Old Town but plenty of bus stops located close by as well. Staff were great, had a private twin room and we were very happy with it. Great facilities for doing laundry as well. Overall I would happily recommend staying her to others.

Not my choice for the next visit. :) Its basically a youth hostel which offers few smaller units as family room which I missed while booking. Given the price, a better options can be taken else where in nearby offerings. Room and bed condition was okay, no complains for breakfast, bathroom shower needs good renovation or repair. Sound proofing is horrible - door bangs and late night party, despite the advisory of silent time 10pm-6am, can be very loud.
