This hostel is right next to the train station so it’s very convenient for travel. The area is a little chaotic but very typical for areas around train stations. The room was clean, the beds were comfy, and the facilities were decent. Was able to utilize the laundry room and the bar area. The bathroom was super tiny and smelled a bit like sewage but totally fine for a night or two. There is a popular shopping area nearby and we were able to visit the Christmas markets.

部屋もきれいだし、シャワー/トイレは各部屋ごとだしで、基本的には不満はありませんでした。 外がうるさいとのレビューがありましたが、部屋によるかもしれません。 僕が泊まった6階の部屋は特にうるさいと感じませんでした。 一方で、ホステル付近はイスラム系の人々が集まる繁華街が近いため、2階、3階とかだとうるさく感じるかもしれません。 ランドリーは一応あるには有りました。 洗濯、乾燥でそれぞれ5€とのことでした。 キッチンは無いので、ご飯は外から調達するしかありません。

Perfect for 1 night stay
The Generator hostel is across the road from the train station which was very convenient for us. Check in was slow as there we many people checking in at the same time, rooms are small but clean, bathroom is tiny but still useable. Breakfast was 9 euro, there are laundry facilities for 6 euro. There are plenty of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. For our 1 night stay this hostel is perfect

It’s so f*** hot in this place, it’s almost impossible to sleep. Also, they booked me, solo-traveling female who arrived late at night, in a room with four men. And no, there was no all-female dorm available, other wise I would have booked it. And no, the hostel wasn’t full - so they could have booked me in either an empty dorm or one that had at least one other woman.

Lovely, Convenient, Spacious
This was one of the easiest hostel experiences I've ever had. The building is in the heart of the city, right next to the bus stop and the train station. Check-in was an absolute breeze, and the people at the desk were very friendly and able to answer any questions. There is an elevator, and the room was large and spacious. The bathroom was very clean, I had a great view of the street. The only downside is that it's a 45 min walk down to the marina. Other than that, highly recommend.
