    Great for families, clean and very friendly staff. Guests were also considerate as we were with the kids. It was cleaner than we expected. And the shared bathrooms were not a problem at all, unlike what we thought.

    Very clean, room we had was quite spacious and had a small balcony. A lot of sitting area, a lot of sinks to use in the morning and they are always clean.

    the kitchen is very clean and organised and its very good for backpackers who wish to cook by themselves to save money. The bathroom and toilet are separate and both very clean. Very comfortable to stay in this hostel

    The whole ambient was cozy, familiar. One of the things that impressed me was the music/radio/playlist which was always perfect. Position is 20min walking from station. Backpackerz is perfect for short staying or even for more than 5 nights...

    The place is very clean. The room for 2 was comfortable. It's very close to the lake. It is about 20 minutes' walk to the main railway station/centre l. If you enjoy walking/jogging, it's the right place for you.

    Probably one of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. Clean, good atmosphere. Location is 15 min walk to train station and centre. The design of the hostel was very cool and modern making it a great place to spend a night. Best night sleep I have...
