    + Great location. nice staff. inexpensive as far as europe goes... - Bathroom was dirty most of the time. didn't have towels so we had to grab them from an open room. locks we're difficult to figure out on bathroom. it was pretty cheap so we didn't expect much but expected it to be cleaner.

    + Good value for money and a good location for bars and coffeshops. - Could do with a good clean and a coat of paint wouldn't hurt. would have liked it more if there was tea and coffee in room, or just a kettle would have been nice.

    + It is an unpretentious place that is well worth the money. - The space is a little intimidating, mostly the going up and down the stairs and the place could benefit from slight repairs.

    The room was old but big, the bathroom was very good, the breakfast was very good, people was very friendly. The noise during the night was quite enough (ships, people). But we felt secure. We could do a lot by walking so near to the center. The value for the money was quite good.

    + That it's right in the center, and offers a descent stay for the buck! - With the price in mind you can't really complain
