It was my first stay in a hostel since I was a teenager. It was a nice experience, the common area is great, with plenty of space, sofas and working desks. There is a kitchen you can use, which is a plus (there is no breakfast included, but you can store your stuff in the fridge). There are several apartments in the block, located on different floors and each one has few rooms. Your apartment will also have a common area with desks and sofas. it's comfortable and helps a lot, as in the actual rooms there is no space for anything. My bed was on the top of the bank bed. To get there you need to be a sporty yogi - I had no problem, but I guess many people will not climb it ;) What's more, between the bed and the ceiling is max. 70cm (you can not sit straight) so not recommended for claustrophobic neither. Ask for middle bed then. Bathrooms are super clean. I was never in a hurry, but when planing to leave early expect a long line to use it.
