    Toilet and bathroom were altogether in one room for everyone.

    The location of the place is good, close to everywhere. Staffs were nice and helpful. Wifi works nicely. The drapes were quite nice to give privacy, although it of course does not help with sound but the hostel provided earplugs for free.

    Smoking sometimes ruined a little ..but is the people they have plenty areas for smoking but typical they used areas next to windows so smoke coming inside …

    Reception very well attended

    Nothing.

    Location, with easy access to bus and train stations, local bars, restaurants and fast food. I arrived late and left early, so made little use of the facilities other than reception and communal shower/toilets. Both were good by hostel standards. My private room was spacious but basic, which is what I wanted.

    It was not pleasant to have 3 (noisy and not polite) people getting into the room at 3/4am for a late check in. All kind of people, not necessarily enjoyable.

    The area was a little noisy at night. This wasn't hostel guests but rather group of young people shouting outside at 5am.

    Room was clean and functional and I loved having a balcony. Staff are exceptional- super friendly and helpful.

    The online registration process was, I thought, over intrusive and asking for too much personal information and data. Most of it unnecessary for standard online registration.

    I liked this Hostel a lot and I have stayed here before which is the best thing I can say about this place.

    We appreciated that there was a washing machine onsite where we could finally wash clothes after 2 weeks on the road. Ever had a day like this one? Conversation with the young employee helping me program the washing machine at Hostellicious: Me: It’s important that the water be cold. Her: That’s fine we can program the temperature to whatever you would like. Me: Great! As long as it's cold. Her: Would you like 60 degrees? 40 degrees? or 30 degrees? Me: Well, 30 is a bit too cold, it’s pretty much freezing, so 40 would be fine. Her: ok 40 degrees Me (in hotel room the next morning getting dressed) Why are all my clothes so tight this morning? That chocolate ice cream was good but Jeez--Did I put on that much weight overnight?! Me: OMG She was using Celsius I presumed she was using Fahrenheit when I said 30 degrees is almost freezing. OMG. Almost $200 of expensive high tech hiking clothing, destroyed. Contrary to the myth of wealthy Americans we scrimped and saved for this trip and I can't just go out and guy these things again. 🙄🙁😵‍💫 So lesson learned--even though it appears the other person understands, it must be repeated 3 times in different ways like using the words Fahrenheit and Celsius, for verification.

    There was free street parking around the square right outside the door of Hostellicious. In spite of the 'hostel' name, one has their own private room and private bathroom. Only the kitchen and rooftop decks were community space. . The room was small but my husband thought the bathroom used the small space well.

    Was in a 8 bed dorm with older guys, snoring the whole 6 nights so had little to no sleep! other than that i cannot complain

    Average comfy beds, 5-minute walk to the train and bus station. Very clean, probably the cleanest I've been to! Mixed bathrooms was actually ok, was very apprehensive, but nice and clean. plenty of showers and not many toilets 2nd to last night had my own towel stolen, reception was helpful sadly will have to buy a new one. Nice privacy curtains, pillow was ok I requested a bottom bunk but got a top, but no worries! Good facilities, free coffee, decent sized kitchen, a nice lounge area where you can connect your phone to the TV or watch YouTube Happy hour beer from 6 pm-8 pm
