Kretan Hostel

The room was overall not taken care of, the pillowcases and blankets had hairs on them, the furniture were dusty and the walls were quite dirty. The stuff was absent for the most part and we were unable to contact them for the check out - also the check out time written on the door of the room was different from the one on the site (12pm instead of 2pm). The shared bathroom was clean enough at first, yet it was not being cleaned up during the stay -not enough toilet paper and no towels included.

Had a creepy man staying there. No hostel staff about at night and nobody else staying there. Don’t think he was supposed to be there either, was sneaking about the hallways and hiding until I got off the phone. Felt I had to book a hotel so left. Can’t contact the hostel the email on the app doesn’t work so can’t see any convenient way to reach out to them.

Good location between G Nord station and centre/old town. Had bed bugs. Owner tried to suggest it was mosquitoes, but the bites are quite distinctive. Not enough plug points in bedrooms. Place was evidently tired - signs up with good review rating from 18/19 was quite sad and it's clearly not as good as it used to be. Arguably reasonable value for money.
