Positive: friendly and very informal people at the desk. Hot water (bring your own tea bags and cup though). Location is super. Room - not bad. For the 50 euro I got a room for my own. A bit depressing grey bunk bed, but for the rest pretty nice. Even nice old chest. Nice: images in the corridor. Elveator works well. Enough bathrooms. Design (red pipes on the ceiling, weird but cool).Nice: there was an exit to fire stairs from my window. I could use it as a private balcony. Nice: Fridge to use. Chill space to work. People with dogs allowed. Longer stays deals allowed. (good!)
Negative: Cockroaches!! In the bathroom, a lot of them. Broken old radiator. Was like a little volcano, making noise and expelling steam. They said it was normal, but the whole night i was afraid it would explode and give me a fountain of boiling water. There were no towels and no real blankets, just sheets. Pillow wrapped in plastic and feels like you sleep on a big package of M&Ms, making crackling sounds. There was no adapter from European to American power socket at the desk (sad, I couldn't charge my phone or computer). I got a headache, after that broken heating. No payment online via booking. (it delivered a lot of stress, because I couldn't pay immediately).
