It's a cheap hostel and it should be taken into consideration while booking. The building itself is quite old but the refurbishment was done on the cheap. The overall cleanness is poor. The room was very hot and no fan or air-conditioning ( you can rent a fan at the reception). The bathroom is microscopic. There was construction work going on literally outside our room. It's also a noisy street with cars and trams going into late at night.

Beautiful building, decently maintained. Fantastic location that allowed me to quickly head over to the station for a 6 AM train. The washing machine was quite expensive (8 euros!), but I gather this is the norm among European hostels. From my experience there weren't a ton of people gathering in the common space, so it wasn't a great place for meeting people.

The hotel is not a hotel, was more hostel, to many people always around smoking weed so even I paid for a week I booked in order hotel near by. So if you are a millennial or a zoomer this is your place. But for me was a really wrong decision

Building was very unique and room was comfortable and quiet. We could walk to restaurants and shopping, as well as take the tram to other neighborhoods. Franceska and Markus (not sure of the spelling!) were very friendly and helpful!
