    Awful Experience -- Do Not Recommend You get exactly what you paid for - iIhad to compromise and look for the cheapest option - NEVER again. I booked last second this hostel for two nights, and while the remote check-in process was smooth and the location is decent, everything else was a disaster. I stayed in the female dorm and had the top bunk, which was uncomfortable, but manageable. The real issues were the filthy common areas, shared toilets with limited toilet paper (!) and showers that looked like they hadn't been cleaned in days, and a general feeling of neglect. The worst part? I came back from sightseeing on day two to find my bed stripped and my belongings moved without my permission. My bag was left near reception--completely unsecured. It felt chaotic and honestly unsafe. The room looked like it had been overtaken by squatters.

    Location, easy access to everything within walking distance. Shared Bathrooms/Showers not clean, mattress on bed was paper thin and very springy. Shared kitchen and fridges weren’t very clean.

    Good location This shouldn't be advertised as a hostel. It's more a shared house. A dirty and broken-down shared house that shouldn't be paid 85$ for a night on a dirty matress in a broken bed. Sheets were obviously dirty from previous guest with hairs on pillow and used paper tissue in the bed. Bathroom are dirty and crowded. Even had to queue to pee at 3 am. Kitchen was dirty. Fridges are obviously not cleaned as often as advertised. Impossible to put anything in it. Found a friendly long term guest to share his shelf. Without him it would have been impossible to only put a yoghurt and a bottle of iced coffee in the fridge

    Okay overall. Like it works, but quite unclean and not too nice of a place. Price is however good and laundry was cheap

    Disappointing

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    Fantastic Location, and great vibe for the budget Traveller.

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    Staff are friendly, private parking was secure, room itself was clean and had a fan. The photos of the hostel are clearly taken from years ago as it looks nothing like them. All shared areas are horrendous, the other people are obviously residents who actually live there as they have far too much food/things to be passing through. No fridge space whatsoever, everything is completely crammed in. Toilets and showers are filthy. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

    Friendly lady on reception. Car parking was fantastic. Bed was very low and only one chair in the room
