Worth weighing

  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 13:00 to 23:30, so if you arrive late at night or early morning, you may need to plan ahead.
  • No on-site parking mentioned — If you're driving, you'll need to find alternative parking as the hostel doesn't list any on-site options.
  • Pets are not allowed — If you're traveling with a furry friend, this isn't the place—pets are not permitted.
  • Small rooms may feel cramped — Rooms are listed with limited square footage, so if you prefer more space, you might want to consider a larger hotel.
