Rooms and bathrooms were very clean, staff were very nice and easy to check in and out. Would have liked a water fountain but that’s the only thing I could find that wasn’t positive about the place. I do recommend having a car if you are here as it’s 10 min away from center drive and far walk

The hostel was fine. But honestly if you don't have a car it is not convenient at all unless you wnat to walk about 30 - 45 minutes to get anywhere. It is not close to the BSI bus station and the bus is a pain as you have to buy add on tickets when you get the airport bus. I was charged around $45 for a cab from the airport. You can't check in till 3pm and there is nowhere around there to eat or in the hostel. They have a kitchen and suggested I make my own food that I bought form the supermarket. Which is not close and I didn't have a car! The vending machine was super expensive and only had some really bad sandwiches. And the coffee machine is inside the reception which i closed after 9pm so good luck getting a hot drink! The beds were really hard and two singles stuck together. (I was in the private room 8). There was no desk / chair or TV which made it really awkward to use a laptop. The shared bathroom was clean. Also if you want to get the hop on hop off bus tour the nearest stop is at Perlan which is about a thirty minute walk uphill through a park with winding roads and by a really busy motorway which is impossible to cross unless you use the subway.
