One of the best hostels...
Liked: Highly recommend! The staff at the hostel are incredibly friendly and always ready to help with anything you need. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the common areas offer plenty of room to relax or socialize. I was especially impressed by how clean the in-room bathrooms were—everything felt fresh and well looked after. Overall, the facilities are very well-maintained, making for a smooth and enjoyable stay.
Disliked: I can’t think of anything negative to say; the experience was smooth from start to finish.

Disappointing, but a very good...
Liked: The location was good.
Disliked: The receptionist was friendly, but the rest of the staff were unprofessional and unwelcoming. We weren’t greeted, and some staff even sat with their shoes on the tables.Cleanliness was a major issue: mold in the showers, blocked drains, and dirty toilets.The hostel feels run-down and poorly maintained. It was very noisy — including vacuuming at 3 a.m. — and the smell from the restaurant below was unpleasant. I didn’t feel welcome and wouldn’t stay here again.
