We stayed at the other hotel owned by Picasso Backpacker - it's about a 30 second walk away. The location was fantastic - right in the heart of all the action, by the Cathedral...however, there was NO heat in our room. It was downright freezing. Luckily they had multiple wooly blankets in the cupboard - we certainly needed them! My... More

Sure young people will stay here, and during the summer, but for us, a mature couple and in November, the one night stay was a mistake. Room was cold as a jail, and not even bigger... "Breakfast", yes you can call it as breakfast; coffee, bread etc. served in very modest way. What else to say than go there in... More

Owner of this hostel should take care about this place!!! It is full of potentional, location is only two minutes from main street and catedral. The stuff was really unfriendly and rude... Didn't know to give us, for me, some basic informations. Hostel is too noisy, open floor and it's a big problem. Receptionist at night watches movies and it's... More

We spent 3 nights at Picasso. Breakfast was included if you consider a piece of toast with dirty looking butter breakfast. The staff acted annoyed when asked about the juice that's included. There was no sign of soap to wash dishes, when we asked for some, we were told the dishes were clean. We watch guest rinse their used dishes... More

This one turned out to have room. the lobby looked nice. Open and bright with lots of plants and painted bright green and white. It seemed cheerful. My thought was to... More

Without meaning to sound harsh, this is one of the worst hostels we have stayed in. We had a twin room. The rooms were clean, but basic and outdated. We had a ensuite which was little more than a converted cupboard; there was just enough room for one person to stand in it sideways. The shower was so small, you... More
