I stayed in a female-only 6-bed room with a private bathroom. The room itself was nice. The sheets were clean and organized, but they don't have curtains. The beds have a locker underneath it that you can use, but make sure to bring you own lock. The private bathroom was small but fine. They also have shared bathrooms in the hallways, which are definitely small but manageable. The check-in process was easy. There's a 1euro deposit for the keycard. They have a communal kitchen with small fridges and a bar area. I will say there's only one lounge area, but it's where the bar is so rather loud and dark. Overall, a good stay. I would stay here again.

My 3rd time staying at this hostel. Wonderful location and amazing staff. Also visited the other locations/bars they have and was pleasantly surprised. I travel alone and opted for an all female dorm this time and it was perfect. Thanks for another great stay!

If you can get it for cheap, then it's all right.

Got a good deal on the Pig. It was in a decent location and I was able to get around the city with ease. It was a little grubby, tho. Simply painting the walls would be a big improvement for the place. No elevator and lots of steps. Gotta go downstairs to then go upstairs to get outside. Again, if you can get it for a cheap price and don't have too high of standards, then you'll be fine.
