Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Expect a party, not quiet — This is a party hostel. Noise is a given, and guests who want a calm night may struggle. The hostel offers free earplugs and headphones, which many found helpful.
- Adults only and no pets — The hostel doesn't accept children or pets, so it's not suitable for families or anyone traveling with an animal.
- Shared bathrooms in all room types — Even the twin room has a shared bathroom. If you want en-suite privacy, this isn't the place.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is only open from 14:00 to 23:59. Late-night arrivals after midnight aren't possible, which could be a hurdle for some flights or buses.
