My group was initially hesitant to stay in a hostel. The experience ended up being better than we expected. The check in was straightforward, the room was clean, and the bed was comfy.
We had just visited some friends' apartment, and were surprised that the bathroom in the hostel was cleaner than our friends' apartment bathroom.
The open communal space was quaint and another guest was cooking something that smelled extremely delicious- maybe Mediterranean food.
A good value overall.
