Heraklion Youth Hostel

Bed bugs everywhere! Brought the bed bugs Home and took me a month to get rid of them. Avoid this place! This place is dirty, stinky, old and infested. Stains of urine and blood on my bed. This place is not even worth 5€ per night. AVOID!!!

The rooms were roasting hot and the AC was minimal, there were also bed bugs so I doubt the sheets were washed. I spent two nights and on my first, there was so much noise outside from cars and people shouting no one in my dorm slept. The kitchen situation isn't great so expect to eat out a lot. The staff were friendly but they take your passport as a deposit key which is illegal. The location is good and fairly close to a lot of the sights but I wouldn't recommend staying for long.
