- Value rating lower than other categories — The Value category scores 7.9, below the overall 8.3, suggesting some guests found the price-to-experience ratio less compelling.
- No pets and no on-site parking — Pets are not allowed, and there is no parking listed – a consideration for those driving, though the old town is car-free anyway.

8.3Verified guest“The location was amazing, right in the heart of the old town yet surprisingly quiet at night. Staff, especially Mateja, were incredibly friendly and helpful. We loved the 24-hour kitchen access and the free food in the fridge.”
8.3Verified guest“My first hostel experience and it was excellent. WiFi worked perfectly, and I could stay after checkout in the common area during heavy rain, drinking coffee. Staff printed my bus tickets and answered all my questions. The kitchen had everything, including teapots for real Chinese tea and Turkish coffee. The room was cosy and comfortable, the location easy to find, and it was great value, especially booked last minute. A simple breakfast is available if you're saving money.”
