  1. Theft/security Booking.com

    The location is central No locking system throughout the hostel;, anyone from the street can just walk in and go through your stuff. Mould all over the bathroom and room. Strange vibe...

  2. Booking/trust Booking.com

    Good location. Some Caretaker was there who was a fraud and ran away after some days. Cheated people with money and spoiling the experience.

  3. Theft/security Booking.com

    Host friendly and good location 5-7 minutes walk from bus station and 5 minutes from beach. Price matched what you got. No where to lock away valuables and no door locks either. Not the quietest with an aircon unit outside our open window going on/off all night. Room pretty compact -fine as a one night stop. Didn’t appreciate having kitchen light turned off on me twice while I was in there having a drink before the ‘…

  4. Theft/security Booking.com

    It was central and the owner was very kind. More of a social hostel than I expected. Beds were clean. There is absolutely no security at this hostel. Anyone could walk into your room at any time as there are no locks to be found anywhere. Nor are there lockers. Some random girl walked in our room and used our toilet at 2 am.

  5. Theft/security Booking.com

    Great location, decent room, clean, simple. Had working Aircon and shared bathroom for each dorm. Was good to stay for a night and quite cheap Front doors always open and no locks on any doors, anyone can just walk in. Felt unsafe leaving my things in the room especially when my room was the first room in the house. Not really a proper communal area, just some chairs and tables out front.

  6. Booking/trust Hostelworld

    There were no curtains, no lockers, no locks on the bathrooms, mold in the rooms, kinda dirty everywhere. The hostel is open to anybody who wants to walk in. Owner blocked me from leaving a review by chancelling my booking after leaving a night earlier than planned. No refund policy. Hostel is near a very busy road, which was super loud. I didn’t feel safe at all and wouldn’t recommend for any woman to stay there.

  7. Theft/security Hostelworld

    as a solo female traveler i felt beyond unsafe and uncomfortable for the entirety of my stay. only positive is location; bus, beach, and old town all 5min walk away. decent kitchen but no microwave. hostel is incredibly open with access to dorms from the street. no lockers, and doors to rooms do not lock or shut properly. owner and friends often hang around the front of rooms, and i was under the impression they all…

  8. Theft/security Booking.com

    Sijainti ok. Noin 10 min bussiasemalle ja rantalähellä - not comfortable atmosphere - no clean blankets - bathroom & kitchen not clean; no curtain at the shower & bathroom gets wet - only cash payment - owner & friends of owner live & stay around the hostel and especially kitchen all the time - no lockers for everyone - main entrance always open -there are no locks for the room doors. Anyone can enter. -These good re…

  9. Theft/security Hostelworld

    Some proper doors would be nice. Shout out to Volkan, he’s a good bloke and does his best but the hostel is lacking. It’s ok for one night if you’re passing through but the hostel is very average. The bathroom doors don’t lock, no lockers for your belongings, anyone can access the rooms and the communal spaces are basic and uninviting. There were some older blokes hangout and smoking in front of the room, they were u…
