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.
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.
