Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not in the city center — About 3.6 km from the historic architecture district, so you'll need a bus or tram to reach the old town. Still, many guests found it convenient.
- Rooms are basic — The rooms come with heating and little else — no private bathrooms or in-room amenities beyond a flat-screen TV in some areas. Expect a simple, hostel-style experience.
- Dining options limited — There's a bar/lounge and vending machines, plus a shared kitchen, but no full restaurant on site (though one review mentions a cafe). Dining rating is a middling 7.8.
- Check-in ends at midnight — Official check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59, so if you're arriving very late, plan accordingly. 24-hour reception still helps with late arrivals within that window.
