10/10 Exceptional

First stay at a hostel. Not bad.
Only needed a clean room to stay in for the night after seeing a late show. I was there for check in and then back around 2am to sleep. I had a top bunk, the bed was fine, no one was on bottom. A five minute walk from Bart. I was hoping for a better breakfast but it was very simple(I had toast with butter and jam,an apple, and some boiled eggs and coffee), but better than nothing. There's also a cafe/restaurant next door if you want something else. I would stay again for the price.

8/10 Very good

よかった点: ・年季の入った建物ながらとても清潔でした ・街の中心部にあるため主要な観光地へのアクセスがしやすかったです 気になった点: ・水回りや廊下からすごく独特な臭いがしました ・朝食はブッフェ形式ですが値段相応の最低限の内容でした
