Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No parking on site — The hostel does not list parking, so guests arriving by car will need to find public options nearby.
- Adults-only policy — Children are not accommodated, which may not suit families travelling with younger guests.
- Basic dorm amenities — Shared rooms list only a shower and heating, without extras like lockers or personal lighting in some dorms.
- Potential noise from central location — Being in the heart of the Old Town surrounded by bars and restaurants could mean street noise, though one review noted it was quiet at night.
