Room types

These rooms have single beds and kitchen facilities such as a fridge, microwave, utensils, kettle, dishwasher and oven. The four- and six-bed rooms also have views of an inner courtyard and access to a patio.

If you prefer a private room, you can choose the quadruple room with its own bathroom and shower, equipped with four single beds. It is the only category described as having a private bathroom. The shared dormitories differ mainly in the number of beds and floor area, and also have a washing machine, tumble dryer, toaster and dining table. The accommodation combines shared spaces with a quadruple room with a private bathroom.
