The hostel was in a great location and the price was great, however it took me by surprise that the 6 bed rooms were coed with both sexes. I did not like that fact, nor all the stairs that had to be climbed. Not the best option for older travelers.

I really enjoyed it and was pretty clean, however the showers were dark and the toilets didn't flush properly.

Good for the price, excellent location
Good for the price. Rooms were relatively clean and service was very friendly and helpful. Very basic amenities. Room was a little hot and stuffy. Showers were clean and hot, always appreciated. Fantastic location.

Trying to get a 😴 sleep.
Having bunkbeds next to the door in the room is stupid. If you put rubber strips on the inside of doors then people wouldnt hear constant doors banging. Going into a busy bar disabled was intimadating for a non drinker to collect key card. Also after telling you i am disabled you still put me on the top bunk .I couldnt climb up the four steps to the bed. Thankfully a customer swapped beds with me.

if you were in rooms under maybe 15 you got to be on the bar side which is cool and has a secret garden. I was not, so just on the regular side. the lounge was good and social, but the kitchen was small and had no oven, just a couple of hot plates. the bathrooms felt like you needed jandals to use the showers but otherwise all good. the number they put up to call if you needed to drop off luggage didn't work until. you tried without the area code which locals might know but tourists didn't, but figured it out

It was great although the toilets need some sort of fixing most of them were difficult to flush even with nothing in them. Just not enough preasure or something
