The hostel offers really nice and well-equipped rooms in a modern setting, with nice common areas, good Wi-Fi, and a convenient location near the city center. However, the quirky 'STD Room' naming and some noise around the floor can be off-putting at times.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was incredible, with beautiful creative paintings decorating the hallways, but there wasn't much in terms of nearby restaurants and it didn't feel very safe to walk around at night. The dorms were located in the historic center, adding to the charm of the area. However, the constant loud music in the downstairs area made it hard to have a conversation or inquire about tours.
Rooms
5.0
The room I stayed in for two nights had no security measures, which made me uneasy about leaving my belongings there. Additionally, the nightly parties on the rooftop terrace with very loud music disrupted my peace and quiet.
Service

The service was lacking in motivation and professionalism. I felt pestered to order items and encountered issues with payment processing, leading to a sense of unease during my interactions.
Location

The hotel offers spotlessly clean rooms with great amenities in a convenient location, albeit a bit far from the main street. However, some noise disturbances could affect your stay. The service might not meet expectations with disoriented staff members. The dining area is average, and the facilities are adequate but nothing exceptional.

I found the hotel to have its ups and downs. The rooms were not ideal, with no windows and a lingering smell, plus the noise from the street was bothersome. However, the central location was a plus for visiting downtown attractions. The dining options were decent but a bit expensive. Service was a mix of friendly staff but some confusion with reservations. Overall, it's a so-so choice for accommodation.
Rooms
