Beware of this dump. Keep out!!! Don't ever sleep in their train cabins. It is the most unsanatary place I have ever seen in a hostel. All night and a half a day the sink was clogged in the women's bathroom. There was no toilet paper from 12 am to 2 pm in the same women's bathroom. The hallways were full of garbage from 6 am to 2 pm until I had had it and booked a new place. I am surprised that this place has not been shut down for not meeting European Union standards. It is a scam for what they charge for complete disgust.

I initially booked the train cabin for my family of 6 because the rooms were fully booked. Upon seeing how small they were, I went to the front desk to request a transfer to a family room. The place was fully booked that night, but they were able to get us into one for the following two nights. The staff was very helpful and quick to accommodate our needs.
