Good place to stay for a night or two, could do with better cleanliness specially in the bathrooms. Staff very friendly, good location.

It was a very nice stay! Even though the rooms were quite big and the beds seemed bit squeezed, I had enough space. New beds and good matresses. Lot's of friendly people were around, a few were long term guests. It was clean (only 2 female showers worked, which were plenty when I stayed, but the hostel wasn't booked fully). Breakfast was great and plenty, kitchen clean (but closed during night). Free WiFi in community area. Been a good stay and would stay again :)

Security was average but someone in room 11 kept leaving the door unlock some anybody can work in.

The hostel was reasonable with the exception of the staff who were extremely rude. I would definitely never stay here again since I don't particularly like being treated like garbage.

This is one of the best hostels I have stayed at. There is everything you need and a real sense of friendliness, especially from the staff. The showers work. The kitchen works. There's a bar. People generally seem to have respect for other people here. Voila. I like it.
