The hostel is great. There's free food and (plenty of it) 24-hour service. The only downside is that, while the area is very well connected and safe, it's not the nicest part of the city.

Very central location, the lack of parking nearby in my opinion penalizes it a lot, but it can be reached by metro and other public transport. Overall it is good for tourists or groups who want to visit the city.

Impeccable! The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, the bar is cool, there's a great atmosphere, and the shared kitchen and terrace really make you feel at home and are perfect for meeting people. It has that authentic hostel vibe. I highly recommend it, but come with good vibes. Thanks to the Bello team, you're the best!
