Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Moderate value score — Value was rated 7.9/10, which is slightly below the overall rating, suggesting some guests felt the price didn't fully match the experience.
- Limited on-site facilities — While the hostel has a kitchen and common rooms, there's no mention of a bar, restaurant, or laundry services, so you may need to step out for meals or use external services.
