bed ordinary, no small wardrobe not even a coathanger, no iron claimed it was stolen and was getting a new one (still no iron after 6 days), kitchen a shocker (food scraps everywhere) only a couple of people would clean up after them selves, sometimes very noisey late at night

Beurk!!! Ça décrit cet endroit a la perfection! C'est sale même quand la personne qui s'occupe du ménage à fait son travail! C'est tellement vieux et mal entretenu que la saleté est incrustée! Nous avons eu le déplaisir de croiser des cafards dans la cuisine et une souris vers les dortoirs . Les draps sont épais comme du papier à cigarette tellement ils sont élimes . La meilleure chose serait que les services de l'hygiène ferment cet endroit répugnant!!

we made a mistake.....we didn´t check the comments of other travellers that lived in this hostel before....so we just went there. We can just say: It was horrible!! The Owner was very unfriendly as we told him its the most dirty place we have been through! Disgusting!! Hostelworld shouldnt commit this place!

This hostel was horrible. No lockers and my dorm room door had been kicked in so no security. There was cockroaches and worst of all I got absolutely covered in bed bug bites. Didn't even stay the remainder of my nights and they would not give a refund. Will never stay there again

hostel is okay for budget accommodation. it provides the necessities and the basics for you but every now and then it will be cool to get a place where there is something unique about a place. having a bed or a sofa or even pots and pans is okay but doing something different would be great.

I booked a female dorm, but we ended up in a mixed dorm. When we said that we're in the false room the receptionist said that he took female dorms out Of hostel world and we must be false. He said we won't have a problem for us to stay in this room (unfriendly). about the room: it was really filthy and the walls were damaged (holes everywhere). After a while we met our "other" roommates - also known as big cockarouches. We didn't get breakfast (we left at 7.30...too early he said).

I thought the reviews were being over dramatic when they said this was the dirtiest hostel they had ever been in! Disgusting, and not cheap either. We were supposed to be in a female dorm, but we were put in the mixed dorm as the air con was broken in the female dorm, plus it hadn't been cleaned and there were old clothes that had ben abandoned in there. in the toilets, half the lights didnt work and you had to avoid the cockroaches. They need to get their act together and do a few repairs.

Well, shocking place. Several facts in the profile are simply wrong: Reception is not 24 hours open, No Jacuzzi, no Bar, BBQ is useless. It is really run down and extremly dirty. Had also some uninvited guest: cockroaches. Some people told us that some of there belongings was stolen - food missing, computer and boots. First morning (6a.m.) there was a fight between two drunk guys And as other already wrote: Lots of alcohol consumption from some guests.
