In brief
What works, what to weigh
+

- Friendly and helpful staff — The staff are described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful across numerous reviews, including handling late arrivals well.
- Soundproofed, quiet rooms — Despite being in an older building, guests noted that street and neighbor noise didn't bother them, thanks to the soundproofing.

–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Adults-only policy — This hostel does not accommodate children, which may not suit families traveling together.
- No pets allowed — Guests traveling with pets cannot stay here.
- Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight may need to arrange special access – one guest noted instructions for late arrival, but it's not guaranteed.
- Located in an older building — While soundproofing helps, the building itself is older, which might not appeal to those expecting modern infrastructure.

The bottom line
A solid, no-frills choice for couples or solo travelers who want a central, quiet base with genuinely friendly staff. The lack of children and pets, plus the midnight check-in limit, narrow the audience, but for the right guest it delivers reliable value.
8Best for budget-conscious adults who prioritize location and quiet over amenities.
