Beautiful building, decently maintained. Fantastic location that allowed me to quickly head over to the station for a 6 AM train. The washing machine was quite expensive (8 euros!), but I gather this is the norm among European hostels. From my experience there weren't a ton of people gathering in the common space, so it wasn't a great place for meeting people.
