"We arrived late, after front desk folks had gone home, after midnight. Called the listed number and they sent a guy over to get us in which was really nice, but maybe they should change check-in/open hours. Room was nice and new and clean. Whole place kinda had cam-girl factory vibes tbh"

LaOla Living - Hostel
4.0 out of 10, (3)
"We didn’t have high expectations from this place. Check in person wasn’t speaking English but was very helpful. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. The common area and specially the restrooms and showers were not very clean. Location is in a middle of nowhere. The price was super high due to the Euro 24 championship. Ok stay but we will probably not stay there again. "

"Good: Central location, comfy bed, well equipped kitchen (inc Nespresso, hobs, big fr/freezer and microwave), good shower. Very spacious. Bad: Lots of stairs (60+) to third floor (some apartments on 2nd floor) and no lift. Patchy/slow Wi-Fi, so Netflix wouldn't really work on TV and struggled to stream content on laptop.
