So, we stayed here for 3 nights. A brief review - mixed dorms, clean rooms, clean beds. Very friendly staff, helpful for information and directions. Hot pasta meal provided at 7 pm daily. Great if you're on a budget. If you are looking to keep cost down but are not looking for frills, book and stay here! P.s the 'terrible'... More

Nice hostel. Nothing special, but everything you need to stay over for a night or two. Lockers, hot water, wifi and free pasta every night. Friendly Indian guy as a stuff.

...first worst was "Peace and Love" in Paris, see my review. This place features: 1. absolutely no security. No keys, no lockers, nothing. People strill freely in/out no one askes who or where you belong. 2. tiny rooms and poor equpment. No other furniture than bunk beds - you only can spread your stuff on the floor. Common room is...
