The location of the hostel is great, , the staff is great, but the income hall is a bit strange. The room and beds are very good though!

Arrived after 1am, like stated when booked because of there being 24hour reception, to find a note taped to the front door saying the name and floor level/room number and that the key was on the window sill. I'm glad no one else read the note and went upstairs, as it was a main street. Another note was slipped under the door around 1am by the owner telling us about breakfast. Breakfast included stale bread, long life milk, about 4 tea bags and hard nutella. The only upside is it's really clean.

It was too cold in the room the first two nights and the third night, it was too hot. They should trust their guests and let them regulate the aircondition themselves. There are no bathrooms in the kitchen area, which is annoying. The kitchen is too small for the whole hostel and very poorly equipped. The location is awesome, but the price is too high. Another bad thing: payment only possible in cash an then they had no change!

Rooms and bathroom are renovated newish, hallways stairwells and common areas range from Passable to post apocalyptic. Door to the place is almost totally unmarked off a wide ally, look for the address. Indian-staff / owners are pretty slow all around, but can get by. Breakfast is cornflakes basically. Outside patio is quaint. Overall it's not the worst but if you have other options take them!

The location is really good, near the big rialto market. The staff is nice and the kitchen is the place to meet people and cook yourself if you are on budget. Instead of 7 nights i only stayed 2 nights beacause Could sleep at a friends place. The first night was quit horrible, i found three big bed bugs and killed them getting a lot of blood in my bed sheets, i putted on new sheets and the second night was better, but if you are able to bring your sleeping Bah, do it.

Outside the hostel and the building is veeeery old and unpleasant. The rooms are very simple and the beds are small.The bathrooms was clean and new, no internet and linen included and breakfast is served in a family table. I don't think I was paying for a service that worth all the money I spent.
