Accommodation ranges from mixed dormitories with 6, 8, 12, or 14 beds to private double, twin, family (3 beds), and quadruple (3-4 beds) rooms. Dorm beds feature privacy curtains, individual lights, power outlets, and large lockable storage drawers underneath the bed. Private rooms include a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, flat-screen TV, minibar, washing machine, and air conditioning. Many rooms offer city views. Basement rooms have no windows or natural ventilation, leading to poor air quality; rooms above ground level have windows and fresher air. Rooms are separated by partial walls only, so noise carries between adjoining rooms. Metal bed frames and the locking mechanism on storage drawers can be noisy. Motion-sensor lights in dormitories turn on with any movement and stay lit for a long time, disrupting sleep.

The hotel offers a paid continental breakfast at 6 EUR, consisting of a choice of pastry (cinnamon roll, ham and cheese napolitana, pain au chocolat, or spinach and feta napolitana) along with a hot drink and juice. A coffee shop on site sells specialty coffee and rolls. The bar serves drinks, including 0.5L draught beer for 1.8 EUR during happy hour and 3.7 EUR normally. Vending machines provide snacks and drinks around the clock. There is a shared kitchen with microwaves, ovens, toasters, kettles, and large refrigerators for self-catering, though no stovetops, pans, or pots are provided.
