   Probably the worst hostel I've been to. Although the location is decent and you can get to the city really easily, it doesn't really compensate for the hostel's quality. After I checked in, I was directed to a room that had a broken lock and there was no elevator, which was quite troublesome since it was on the top floor. I was in a mixed room, being the only woman with 5 men, which was a bit uncomfortable. The worst part however, was that one of the men that was in this room was snoring really loudly, and after a while (I assume) a manager got in the room, asking us who said man is. After a confrontation, it turned out the snorer had no personal items, wasn't even booked into the hostel and nobody had any idea as to how he got in (he had the keys). Also he admitted to being high, so that's a bonus. The manager complained about people not locking the rooms, even though it was literally impossible due to the lock being broken, and left, saying he would remove the drugged man - once I came back from my walk, he was gone and the receptionist allowed me to switch rooms, but regardless the situation wasn't exactly pleasant and I felt very unsafe. The rooms and other accommodation were fine, everything was clean, though it seems that some people were living in the hostel, because I found somebody's boxers left on a toilet. Generally, wouldn't recommend, especially for solo female travelers.

   The worst place I’ve ever stayed. We were in a group of 4 girls in a female room but it was in a floor filled with male rooms who shared a bathroom with us. I’ve never felt so unsafe!

   If you are a solo female traveler, I suggest taking extra precautions when staying here since there are many older men staying at the property. I don’t have an issue with the older male crowd, however, this crowd made me uncomfortable with their behavior. I was showering late at night after I arrived (I checked in pretty late) and one man tried to open my shower door while he was clearly intoxicated. Bathroom is also dirty and smells awful and kitchen has a roach infestation.

   We had a very bad experience at this hostel. Even though we booked a long time ago, we had to wait over an hour for the room to be ready. When we finally got the room, it was not clean, and neither were the bathroom or common areas. The hostel didn’t have enough locker keys for everyone and gave us only one key for three people, which was very unsafe that we could not put our bags to lock. On top of that, we didn’t feel safe during the night, as the overall atmosphere was uncomfortable. I do not recommend this hostel, especially for female travelers.
