Lovely place, dirty outside but clean onside. Staff was very cool, only missed a kitchen.
No kitchen

No complaints but not much to like.
No laundry room, no kitchen. If you're a tourist you'll be fine. If you're a traveler less so.

Disappointing
Staff was helpful and nice.
The bathrooms have no ventilation whatsoever and the internet doesn’t really work. Yet they try to charge you for every little thing, it feels like they are trying to squeeze money out of you for everything.

Key card played up and I needed to get it redone

Very Poor
Location was fine.
We couldn’t drink the water. There was a sign that said we couldn’t. Didn’t feel safe showering in water or brushing our teeth with water that was unsafe to drink. Flooring was old and worn. Didn’t look clean. Was not a place I’d ever stay again.

The staff were the best thing about the place, friendly and helpful. The location is good, just a 15 minute walk from central train station and the bus station. Walking distance from many sites like the cathedral, Necropolis, MoMA. Plenty of restaurants and grocery stores in walking distance. There are privacy curtains on the beds.
In 20 years of staying in hostels around the world, including several in the UK, this is the only one I've come across that charges for requesting a bottom or top bunk and for storing luggage before check in/after check out. It's also the only one I've encountered with no way for clients to prepare food, not even a microwave, which drastically impacts dietary choices if you want to save money by not eating at a restaurant. Furthermore, the rooms were not cleaned daily. The waste bin in the bathroom was overflowing. There is not enough ventilation in the bathrooms as the bath mat remained soaked all day and night from 6 people showering. Furthermore, the hallways have a musty smell. The mattresses are thin.

Location. Kind staff willing to help.
They didnt put more toilet paper in the toilet for the 2 nights that I was there. The building is under construction and I woke up everyday hearing noises from it. There was no place where I could refill bottles of water.

We thought the room was perfect for our needs.
What we found disturbing was a bird wing in or trash, the entire wing as if it was pulled from a bird. I did mention it to the two women who were on the desk in the morning of our departure.

It was clean and comfortable.
There was no microwave in the common area, and there was no kitchen to use. There was no soap in the showers. It was not conducive to gather as a group and chat.

I appreciated the little privacy curtains on the bunk beds, and all in all it was a very practical spot.
I didn't understand why the tap water in the room wasn't for drinking.

Room was great! Even though it was warmer outside, the room never got too stuffy. I had the breakfast, which hit the spot. The location wasn't too far from the train station that a morning stroll was out of the question.
I didn't really come for the view so not having one didn't matter to me. It was a little difficult to fill my water bladder for hiking, but staff helped out right away.

Very friendly stuff, comfortable common area and a cool neighborhood.
Very noisy (I would hear peoples private conversations on the sidewalks, even though they weren’t even raising their voices), lot’s of noice coming from the hallways and bathroom.
The vibe in my dorm wasn’t what I expected. I thought it was gonna be people more or less my age but I ended up also having dorm mates twice my age.
I also felt like it was a shame that they had no kitchen and the space in the dorms was very limited for 8 peoples (there was no hangers apart from on in the bathroom to hang up wet towels)
Thank you for your information!
