Fabrizio, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall the hostel was good; good service. The breakfast was decent enough, and the beds were comfortable. When checking out I did see that the duvet had a nasty brown stain (I dare not speculate what the stain was). I must have been clear that the spot when they did the bed prior to our visit. I would not mind going to this hostel again, but next time I will inspect the duvet before using it.
