This place is ok, not fantastic. Good location on the river. 10 minute walk to bus & train stations. The internet computers aren\'t great but at least they\'re free. The staff are nice but a bit slow. I stayed in the 14 bed dorm & surprisingly it was actually possible to get some sleep! Bad thing though was the laundry facilities. Took forever to wash & dry, I mean like almost 3 hours - seriously don\'t even bother! Otherwise, not bad. Plus, free beer on arrival is always a good way to sta

Good for drinking. Bad for everything else. For me it was the worse hostel I've stayed in.

Good location but with the massive numbers of people the place receives its difficult not to feel like your on a conveyor belt. The beds are really bad.

It´s very good place where you can enjoy old days, night guide tour every day. If you like parties and going out this is your place. Breakfast not included and the kitchen is quite small.
