    Conveniently located near public transportation and a popular beach. The rooms are comfortable and offer a good night's sleep. The hostel staff, particularly Isabella, was extremely helpful and provided useful information and assistance for our city trip.

    There were issues with the room availability upon our arrival, which caused some inconvenience. Additionally, the limited number of bathrooms, especially for the number of guests, resulted in queues and delays.
