In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book

  • Range of room types — From female and mixed dorms to single, double, and double-with-private-bathroom rooms, with some dorms offering balconies and city views.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The policy explicitly forbids pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements for animal companions.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 13:00 and 23:59, so late-night arrivals aren't accommodated.
  • Check-out before 11:00 — You'll need to be out by 11:00, which might feel early if you're on a slow travel schedule.
