We really enjoyed our 2 nights at the podstel. As an older couple in our 60's we found the young people there very refreshing, positive and polite. Areas very clean.The meals are an added bonus and the podstel adequate and cosy. The dorm was quiet at night, strict rules at pm regarding noise in dorm. Fantastic price for those on a budget or wanting adventure.will definitely stay again.
As soon as I walked in I was welcomed by friendly staff and other backpackers. Feels very social right off the bat. It’s basically one huge dorm with 100 beds, I actually really liked the vibe, honestly not really noisy at all and they make sure to turn the lights off at night and the sun light wakes your up in then morning. Felt like a massive school camp or something. Kitchen is very social too, plenty of people happy to talk. Wifi is fast and they give you free towel, soap, shampoo & conditioner to use. Only downside is that it can get really hot in the pods at night, even on the cool nights it was still very hot, the beds need a little fan or something. Not really any ventilation in the dorm at night. For some reason as well none of the showers and toilets had locks on the doors which could be an issue. All up great location, really friendly staff and easy to meet other travellers here too.
Claudia and the rest of the team were so wonderful. They were always so friendly and personable, they made my stay here really special. I’d highly recommend
