We loved staying in this hotel as it’s set in a beautiful, converted old church, giving it a unique charm. The cleanliness of our spacious private room was impressive, and we found the location ideal, being just a short, pleasant walk to the old town and other attractions like the Modern Art Museum. The large kitchen and common area in the basement were fantastic for socializing, and the friendly staff made our experience even better.

I loved staying in this hotel, which thoughtfully transformed an old church into a cozy space. The cleanliness was fantastic, and the friendly staff made me feel right at home. I also adored the large communal kitchen, equipped with everything needed to cook, and the location was ideal, offering tranquil walks to nearby attractions while being a stone's throw from the bustling city center.

We loved staying at this hotel, as it was a unique experience being in a former church, and the atmosphere was super cool. The location was perfect; we were close enough to the city center to explore easily, yet far enough to escape the hustle and bustle. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home.

The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure our experience was enjoyable. The comfortable beds in the shared dorms allowed us to rest well after exploring the city, and the spacious kitchen was perfect for preparing our meals. Plus, with a great location, we were just a 30-minute walk from the historical old town and only 20 minutes to the vibrant new town.
