    Not much of a social vibe or information for travellers, no kitchen.

    Great decor, comfortable and warm bed, extremely clean, very secure.

    We asked what is happening with the shared toilet if we need a key for it because it looked busy at all times and the owner said no.After 1 hour of waiting asked again and he came to say where is the key for it and unlocking it . I do not really understand why you would lock a shared toilet ? There is no need for TV , but please buy some hangers, are cheap, and make a difference to your guests, without leaving all the clothes on the floor.

    The room and toilet were clean. The location is great.The common areas are interesting and beautiful but not feeling welcome to use them . It looks more like a museum than a shared space. We definitely wouldn't stay here again, not for so long.

    I wish there were more hangers or any kind of hooks in the room so most of our clothes wouldn't be on the floor. The landladies are really strickt and hard to negotiate with.

    Very clean. We could check-in before noon, which was great because it was raining that day.

    We had a great stay in a private room in the Hostel. Our room was clean and spacious, perfect for spending the nights. The location of the hostel is quite close to the busy center and also sits close to the bus terminal.

    Unfortunately it was a very noisy area as there was a school right across the road.

    The room was nice and spacious with a private bathroom and a hot shower which was much appreciated. It was also close to the main square.

    There is a kitchen, but guests are not allowed to use it. Although there is a great communal space, it is very lacking in atmosphere. The staff live there and don't seem to like having guests. We felt quite unwelcome at times. The day we arrived our bus was delayed and I emailed the properly to let them know. They replied that if we didn't arrive by midnight, that we would have to wait until 8am to check in because no staff would be available. We managed to make it just in time, but you can imagine how much stress that caused. Then it turned out that they live there anyway.

    Great location, minutes away from everything. Really clean and comfortable facilities. At some point, someone has obviously taken a lot of care to decorate the hostel.

    The staff were very cold and relatively unfriendly, think of a 70's horror film when you a welcomed with a cold errie feeling of negativitity.. This is not the place for people who like to watch the TV; you can hear a pin drop. If you want the quietists place you can find where everything is shush, hush hush then this is for you.

    This was a clean place, well located in a good location with a comfortable bed. Lots of good decor to look at.

    Where to start. Let's just begin with what matters the most: the room and and bathroom. The room we were given had only two very small windows that opened onto a closed indoor courtyard. In other words, no ventilation is possible and it stays hot and humid in your room 24/7. The beds are covered in plastic and make loud a loud creaky noise with even the smallest of movement (don't even think about getting a good night's sleep here if some other people need to go the bathroom at night). The bathroom was dirty at times and the showers are cold (the host told us it would be one morning but it ended up being the entire 3 days we stayed). The hosts themselves are unfriendly. We had a little kerfuffle one night when we arrived at the hostel while some other guests were just walking in. Thinking we could walk in behind them we were rather surprised to be called criminals by them as they threw the door shut in our face. Some bad words were exchanged and we were ready to just get it over with. However, the Karen boomers decided to talk to the manager and the next morning she came to us on high heels proclaiming we should respect the other guests without even trying to ask us what happened. Note to the hosts: just because some people have managed to live to 60 does not give them to right to treat everyone like trash while demanding respect in turn. The fact that you do not even consider to ask us what happened makes you terrible and disrespectful hosts. This was just the final straw of a consistently terrible hotel experience.

    Nice decorations.
