Customer reviews of the Balthostel Hotel
|
"Clean and warm
" |
|
"Hostel was very clean, quiet and warm on cold winter nights. Not in the
best location as area is a bit seedy but ok if you are like my friends
and I and take everything as it comes. Hostel seems very safe as entry
is by card and keys only and there is a security guard on the ground
floor. McDonald's underneath is extremely handy for a hot cup of tea in
the morning and that late night snack. There is also a 24hr internet
cafe on the 3rd floor which is also handy for cold drinks and snacks and
great for checking if your flight is scheduled to leave on time. Staff
speak very good English and are very helpful. Would definately go back
and recommend it to friends who like clean and basic.
"
