Baxpax Downtown Hostel Hotel

Excellent, one of the best hostels I've stayed in
I have stayed in this hostel both in September and November this year. And plan to again in a few months. Stayed in the thirty-bed dorm in September, and an eight-bed dorm in November. It's a great hostel. Friendly bilingual staff. The dorms are very clean and spacious. Clean bathrooms. Good bar and cafe onsite. All in all, great hostel. And one of the best I've stayed in. My only slight disappointment with the hostel is that the onsite sauna isn't open. Despite it being mentioned on various hostel booking websites that it will be open in Winter 2007/2008. Was advised by a staff member that it won't be opening till about mid-late January. Shame about that. As was looking forward to using it each day after a day's sightseeing. Maybe it'll open when I return again soon. It's rare for any hostels to have an onsite sauna anyway. So it's no great loss. Excellent hostel though as I said. Has my recommendation!
