Guest review
10.0Great hostel with caring staff, with breakfast and dinner
Dirty place
1.0Nothing
− The room was dirty, there hairs on the floor and ON THE SHEETS. They also charged me a deposit key and don't want to return it now
Disgusting
1.0I didn’t like anything, maybe just the location cause it’s close to the city
− First of all, I completely understand that this is a hostel and I wasn’t expecting hotel-level service, but basic cleanliness, hygiene and respect for the rules should be guaranteed anywhere. As soon as we walked in, the reception area smelled strongly of marijuana, and unfortunately the same smell was present throughout the entire hostel. People were even smoking in the kitchen, so we decided to skip the included breakfast. It was practically impossible to sleep at night because of constant shouting, screaming and people partying inside the hostel. In the morning, as soon as we opened our room door, we were hit by the smell of marijuana again. There were chairs blocking doors, cigarette butts and joints all over the corridors, and rubbish everywhere. An absolutely disgusting place, poorly maintained and with no control whatsoever. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, especially considering that it wasn’t even cheap. I stayed in other hostels, i’ve never seen something like that.
