    The room was spacious with comfortable beds and a large bathroom. the location was convenient with parking available. the staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent. I particularly loved the organic food options and the amazing coffee machine. the overall quality of service was comparable to a three-star hotel. I highly recommend staying here when visiting the city again.

    We had a fantastic stay at the hostel. The staff at Generation Europe Youth were excellent and went out of their way to be helpful. The room was surprisingly spacious with big windows and comfortable beds. We appreciated the amenities like the electrical socket, USB socket, and individual light for each bed. The free breakfast offered a variety of delicious options, including cheese, bread, sausage, eggs, fruits, cereal, and more. The hostel had a great atmosphere with billiards and a cozy garden. Despite being a bit far from the city center, we felt safe walking in the area.

    No complaints at all! 😃

    The staff at the reception were very helpful and welcoming, even when I arrived very late at night. They provided me with all the necessary information about breakfast and wifi without me having to ask. The 24/7 reception was a great convenience, especially for late-night check-ins. the location of the hostel was ideal - close enough to the main attractions to walk, but far away enough to avoid the crowds and noise.

    The lack of air conditioning was a downside, as opening the windows didn't always adequately cool the room. The beds and pillows were not very comfortable, which affected the quality of sleep.

    The staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming, going out of their way to assist guests. the open space at the entrance was a great spot to relax and enjoy some food. the building itself was well-maintained and the rooms were quiet, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep.

    Some roommates were quite noisy, especially late at night. on one morning, there were a few missing items like green tea and eggs during breakfast.

    Staying at Generation Europe Youth was a pleasant experience. the manager was attentive and promptly helped us when our room was not available upon early arrival. the hostel itself was modern, clean, and had recently been refurbished. Our spacious room had a private bathroom that was spotless, and the lockers were a good size with shelving. the added bonus of a locked car park was perfect for my car. the hostel also provided breakfast and had a separate toilet and bathroom, reducing any inconvenience. the location, adjacent to the canal, made it easy to access public transportation and reach the city center. There was a peaceful secret garden outside where I could work undisturbed. Cons: For us, it was ideal! 😊.

    I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hostel. The room was spacious and comfortable, definitely worth the money. Plus, the location was great and the staff treated me really well.

    The morning meal could use some improvement, maybe add some more options to it.

    stayed here after a bad experience in paris, but Generation Europe Youth blew me away. New building, friendly staff, and cozy atmosphere make for an amazing stay. Highly recommend!

    The location is really convenient, as it is very close to the city center. You can easily walk to the main attractions or take a short ride on the tube. the room was spacious and clean, with a renovated bathroom. the breakfast offered a wide variety of options, and the shared areas were also well maintained. the secured parking spots were a great advantage for those traveling by car.

    The neighborhood around the hostel could be considered not very safe, especially at night.
