No kitchen, no water after 12pm. Good beds, and breakfast is okay. Staff is okay but not flexible, don't to work too hard. Could be an amazing hostel, but definitely is not.

Apart from the lovely welcome and the good service of the guys at the reception, the rooms were to small and the mattresses small and battered. Every morning we had no water for shower and sink because of the loud pump beside of the dorms. After short call it was fixed.

Good location in the old part of the city, within walking distance of the centre. Staff were nice and though we booked for two nights we were only charged for one as we arrived at 6 a.m. I'd recommend it!

This place was truly horrible. If you have allergies or breathing difficulties (asthma, etc.) you should NOT stay here. The building itself smells musty. I am allergic to some molds and woke up with difficulty breathing and a headache. The sheets, mattress and pillows all were stained. I had to step over air conditioner wires at night to use the bathroom. There was also some very questionable wiring . Wireless?" Yes, but I don't know the code." and wouldn't call to find out. Stay elsewhere.

In the private roomt the bathroom is in the room but only separated by a sliding door so your partner can listen and smell everything you do in there. In addition it's not very clean: our shower had the previous guests' used soaps still there. The room is so tiny we almost didn't space space to place our 2 backpacks in there. No window either, poor ventilation.. very hot even with the fan on. We didn't have water in the night we arrived or morning and no one cared much. Breakfast was very poor

Whoever said that this hostel sucks the life out of you got it spot on! There was no life to the place. One of the staff was very rude, demanding payment for the internet rudely as soon as we walked past her, despite no one saying you had to pay. The electric went out half way through the night and the computer nearly gave us an electric shock! Locatioin is okay.
