Only if you are OK being in a mixed dorm

I’ve stayed here many times since I first stayed here in September 2023. Last March 2026 I was told the policy was not to allow people who identify as female to stay in the female dorms. This despite my ID being female. They did this to me because they know my history. So, stay if you want to risk being told you have to sleep in a mixed dorm or, even worse, the one corresponding to your birth sex – which of course is completely out of order as they cannot ask you what your birth sex is – that’s against the law! My advice – avoid staying in any place run by this company.

I’ve stayed here many times since I first stayed here in September 2023, in dormitories and a couple of times in the rooms. The place itself is very well maintained, and who stays here are always interesting and fun to meet. The services are really good, and facilities are accessible as they should be. As in all hostels, you have to show ID, which is the deciding factor for which dormitory you can sleep in.
