Absolutely one of the worst hostels I’ve stayed in. The rooms were cramped, damp, claustrophobic and constantly hot with barely any ventilation. The whole place smelled bad. Showers and toilets were always filthy, no matter the time of day. Reception didn’t care when we raised concerns. I don’t expect luxury, but basic cleanliness and comfort shouldn’t be too much to ask. Wouldn’t stay again or recommend

Very small room, almost no space to store the luggage. Room is either very cold or smells weird. Toilets and shower super small, the toilets are almost always dirty. Beds have no curtains.
