Great to meet people when travelling solo. Very clean
The attractive tour guides
Decent location and the walking tour helped to orientate. Huge lockers for all your stuff so it felt secure. Pretty social too, most people very friendly.
I'd stayed here about 3 years ago and always remembered it as a nice place to stay. Its still as good as I remember. Only stayed one night but left my rucksack in the storage. The staff let me use the showers and hang out at the hostel until my night train which was great.
