Reviews

I loved the hostel, its organization, and the cleanliness of the place. The staff were all wonderful and always helpful whenever I had any questions, especially the Algerian guy — sorry, I forgot his name. All the staff were excellent and I really liked them very much. The hostel’s location is more than perfect, right next to the metro station and only a few minutes from the bus stops. I would definitely love to stay at this hostel again. The only thing I did not like, and which really bothered me, was the weak internet connection. The Wi-Fi was not as strong as it should be.

Room was fairly small for 4 people and all our luggage. One bathroom to share between several rooms of people. No hand dryer or hair dryer by the looks of it.

The staff at the hostel were consistently friendly and helpful throughout my stay, which made a big difference. They were always friendly, polite and did their best to assist with any questions or concerns I had. The location was also excellent, with easy access to public transit, shops, and nearby attractions. It was a convenient base for exploring the area, and I felt safe and comfortable walking around the neighbourhood. Unfortunately, my stay was impacted by several issues that were never resolved. The wifi did not work at all for my entire four-night stay, on either my computer or my phone. It appeared to be a DNS server issue where new devices could not get assigned an IP address, meaning only those already connected could use the wifi. In addition to that, many of the power outlets in the room and building were not functioning, including the one by my bed. This made it very inconvenient to charge my phone and other devices, especially given the lack of internet access.
