If you are a solo traveller looking to meet people, DON’T stay here. Most guests are a lot older and are long term residents and have no interest in chatting to you. No one was speaking English and I felt super out of place. Only two plug sockets in the shared dorm between 4 people which is ridiculous. Bunk bed creaked every time someone moved. Luckily I only stayed one night, I couldn’t have done any more. However, bathrooms were always very clean and the location is amazing.
