It was my first experience with the hostels so I don't have something to compare with. What I can say, overall it was OK. I stayed only for a night but only because I didn't get used to no privacy. The location is good, the common areas seemed nice and clean and from what I remember the bed was OK. I was put in a room with guys/men, thanks receptionist for that and I couldn't sleep well due to noise so I payed double (or more?) and continue my stay elsewhere in more suitable conditions. If you want lower bed be prepared for the tip(I asked for it but was dismissed with no tips) also better to discuss the conditions in more details at reception regarding who will be with room for example..
