I booked for my friends and they had only words of praise when talking about Treck Hostel. Lovely decor, spotlessly clean, excellent staff who provided tips on where to go and what to do, asking on check out to leave the luggage if necessary. Convenient location within a few minutes walking distance from public transport and approximately 15 minutes from the city center. No noise after 10 pm.

The rooms are clean and shared bathroom is fine but there was no working socket next to my bed. The staff is really nice and helpful, the breakfast costs only 5 euros and that's the best what you can get for this money.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    There is one clothes washer €5 as well as one clothes dryer €2 per load, of which the price is fairly reasonable. The hostel provided me with a lower-bunk bed as requested.

    Everything was typically a youth hostel. The staff were very helpful. It's in the old town, so the attractions are easy walking distance. The staff told us about a free English speaking walking tour, that we could go on, and so we did, and it was great.

    The staff are friendly, the shared space room is very cosy and you can get free delicious coffee and chat with strangers. The rooms are nice, and exceeded our expectations copared to what we paid. Bonus: the hostel is a 15mins walk from the center. Overall I liked everything and I would recommend it for a few days budget friendly stay.
