Worth weighing

  • Facilities rated lower — While the overall rating is strong, facilities score a relatively modest 7.5, suggesting the hostel is basic in terms of amenities.
  • Basic rooms — Rooms are clean and safe but described as basic, with few in-room extras beyond heating and a flat-screen TV in some.
  • No pets allowed — The hostel does not accept pets, which might be a restriction for those travelling with animals.
