Host was absolutely terrible. Zero atmosphere at this place. Does the job for an ok price but did not enjoy my stay here. Host threatened me with a 10k fine for supposedly breaking their front door system when I tried to get in without him telling me the lock number had been changed.

I rate this hostel highly because it's very clean, including the sheets, bathroom, and shower. The AC worked just fine. The security was tight. The WiFi worked well. What I didn't like about it: no laundry, no coffee, not even a stray vending machine. No view whatsoever from my room, which was probably one of the two most expensive. Sole staff member was helpful, too!
