Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the hotel's unique indoor camping concept, with themed caravans and RVs providing a fun alternative to standard accommodations. The clean, modern shared facilities, including showers and wash basins, are frequently mentioned as a positive aspect. While the location is slightly outside the city center, the proximity to the metro makes it easy to reach attractions; the metro station is within walking distance. Some guests have noted that the thin walls can make it feel like you're camping in terms of sound, but overall the experience is seen as cozy and well-organized.

mixed feelings about this stay

loud musicisolated location
The music was loud. it played all day until late at night. It was hard to relax. the location felt isolated, almost like an industrial park. It was not the most scenic. i wish it were quieter and more centrally located.

The room was cozy. The staff were very helpful. The metro is a short walk away. I appreciated the luggage holding services.
The location felt a bit industrial. It is a short distance from the subway. The surroundings did not bother me too much.

the accommodation was very cute. the facilities were clean and easy to use. the atmosphere reminded me of a friendly camp (i felt really safe).
the campers were very close together. this gave you almost no privacy. you had to go downstairs to go to the bathroom and the showers were communal like at a swimming pool.
