The staff was super friendly and accommodating. My first time at a hostel and I was expecting the worst, but my only complaint was a few drunken roommates, which had nothing to do with the place. Recommend it for future stays.

Hôtel propre et personnel sympa mais les chambres donnant sur la rue ne sont pas insonorisées donc demander les autres sinon réveil à 6h30 avec le camion poubelle garanti. Le petit déjeuner pour 10 euros par personne et vraiment light (céréales ou toast beurre confiture et boissons chaudes !) pour 2 euros de plus vous pouvez avoir un petit déjeuner complet ( oeuf, Bacon, beans, toast etc.etc.) en ville ! En résumé pour le prix ce n'est pas vraiment une affaire.
