I arrived at the hostel, having pre-booked from Australia. I was given a key to my room, and when I opened the door, I was absolutely mortified. I was sharing a room with three other females, all whom were obviously permanent residents, as there were 3 distinct 'piles' of belongings taking up every bit of floor space, so I had... More

There was a rotting orange peel on our radiator when we checked in. There was also a moldy, mildew almost wet stink when you entered the room from the open shower. When we checked in the girl at the counter was in regular street clothes that had nothing about the hostel, i almost thought she wasn't part of the hostel.... More

This hostel is sandwiched between two cemeteries. The location was not even great to start off with. Breakfast was meagre bread and butter. The worst hostel I have been in. The bathrooms are terribly dirty, only one shower per floor and it was extremely dirty.
