It‘s just bad. Read the other comments, they said it all. Would never go there again. Price is way to expensive. Pictures do not represent how it looks like. Only good thing: Cleaning stuff was very sweet and helpful!

This place is convenient but quite run down. The bed was quite OK and there is a kitchen with a fridge and freezer. There is no elevator and no air conditioning. There is not even ventilation. It’s in a very loud area. The staff in the café does not speak a word of English and refuses to use Google translate. I don’t particularly regret staying here, but I wouldn’t book again, mainly because the lack of AC makes it unbearable.

No hay AA, en la habitación hay 3 camas y un solo enchufe. En la cocina un solo enchufe para microondas, pava y tostadora. Nunca vimos al personal. En la ducha el jabón y champú hay q dejarlos en el piso. No ofrecen ningún tipo de servicio

Cheap but unsafe and poorly maintained. Unbearably hot!!! The fan supplied doesn’t circulate air and is noisy. The bathroom floods. The beds are awful - warped metal frames that shake with any movement. The AC (selective rooms only) is broken, no window screens, and the rooms have a mosquito infestation. I was bitten over 100 times! There’s no privacy, lockers, and the door was regularly left open. People loiter outside blasting music, and try to peer into bedroom windows. Horrific experienc...

Over 20 mosquito bites on the first night alone!! There was no AC so windows were open (29 degrees) this let mosquitoes in. There was a tiny loud fan, did nothing. Instructions for entering the property were VERY UNCLEAR! we were told to find the key in a lock box somewhere, the key was inside the building with the cleaner…. The next day AC miraculously arrived, mosquitos stayed. Location, roof and kitchen is lovely. It has potential, just the wrong people running it. Cleaner/hostess was gre...

el hostal y sus instalaciones están bien, los baños son privados lo cual me gustó mucho. sin embargo es extremadamente ruidoso en la calle en el que está, no pude dormir ninguna de mis dos noches en las que me quedé, sumado al ruido, el cuarto no tiene aire acondicionado y el ventilador hace más ruido del que sopla viento, tampoco hay mosquitero por lo que a todos los huéspedes nos picaron toda la noche y terminamos muy molestos por eso. no es muy apto para descansar

Positive: The place was clean. Location is amazing as it is close to the city center. Place for locking your important things (you need to bring your own locker tho) Negative: No AC in the room was quite annoying. There was a little fan that I had to put on my bed and then it was okay but if there were others in the room, it would be hard to share. It was also quite noisy from the road outside

Faltan demasiadas cosas en el departamento. La señora que limpia entra y sale mil veces del departamento 1 para sacar la ropa del lavarropas. Es molesto y no hay privacidad

Great showers. Very clean. Nice staff. Fantastic location - only a short walk to nice restaurants, take aways and supermarkets. It is noisy at night which didn't bother me too much but might someone else. First bed I slept on had a memory foam thing which wasn't too comfy, but I switched bed and that was perfect. No lockers in our room. The terrace is great spot to relax for a bit, but the tv/couch area is a bit cramped. Would stay again!

Cheap hostel. Get what you pay for. Location means locals are quite noisy till early hours of the morning. Entrance to the floor was somewhat tricky to access. Must have been pulled off at some point and therefore had to mess about with the key a couple of times to get in. Bed and pillow rock hard. Kitchen and bathrooms are well kept. Good location to commute and nice terrace area

There is no reception desk and I wasn't told how to get in ahead of time. However, after contacting the owner, it was pretty smooth from there. The door to get inside the room was difficult to open, but overall for the price, it was a good experience.

No customer contact. Stood in front of a steel door and had no clue how to check in until I phoned somebody. Breakfast is a joke. Interior/rooms are super basic, filthy and ugly. Room smelled like a chainsmoker had lived in there. Only table was falling apart. Showerhead broken, doors scruffy from the water. Shutters won't close completely, always light in the room. Screaming Arabs in front of the window, super noisy all night, had to sleep with earplugs. Eastern european prison was more cozy.

The room was a good value for the price in a great location. The staff situation was a bit different. Another person staying there checked me in, gave me my keys and showed me around. When I did finally see someone that worked there it was before I checked out. I gave them the keys a little before check out time and asked if I could hang out in the common areas until the rain stopped. She said no you need to leave and go to the street.

Muy sencillo como alojamiento pero lleva todo lo que necesitas para dormir y ducharte Así que probablemente volvería si solo necesito lo básico.
