The place was very nice and position is very good. The rooms appeared to be a little less cozy that what I guess from pictures but still ok. I was unlucky with the weather, so I was missing some furniture in the room to put my wet clothes to dry (like coat stand or something like that).

Great view and great location, but the atmosphere of the whole place was little bit lacking, not really a place for a meeting other people. Definitely to little toilets for a size of the place.

Excellent location. Great vibe.
Hostel could not be in a better location. Good breakfast option, fantastic communal kitchen. Supermarket 2 minute walk away. I stayed in a 14 bed dormitory but beds are divided up and in sections meaning you actually have a lot more privacy than in some smaller dorms I've been in. Hostel offers free local walking tours. Laundry was 5 euros (not including drying) which is super expensive in my opinion, but at least there's space to dry clothes in the room to save money with drying.
