Location about 25 minutes walk from the central station and 15 minutes from Ximeni (metro/bus). Clean and tidy hostel. Check-in until midnight was essential. Towels, tea, and snacks available. Excellent common area. Very kind staff.

Perhaps the rooms have little space for luggage.

It is my favorite hostel I have stayed in so far, the lobby on the first floor is very spacious with many tables and chairs, a relaxing space, and also offers tea and afternoon tea. The bathrooms also satisfied me, with separate wet and dry areas, stable water pressure, each room has a small trash can, no need to take it outside, there are hooks, flat surfaces, and small platforms, providing many places to hang things, no longer worrying about wetting things or having nowhere to put them (unlike many hostels with only one hook that make people frustrated). There is a 24-hour front desk and friendly and courteous service staff, also providing dedicated slippers to keep the common areas clean. It is the accommodation I will consider first when traveling alone in the future, excellent 👍👍👍

A very good hostel/hotel. It is very large, everything is very professionally managed, yet it is somehow personable. The location is good (5-10 minutes to the metro).

My room was much too small for the number of beds and the price. The suitcases were literally piling up.
