Summary of reviews

Guests say
Most guests were highly dissatisfied with their stay, citing severe cleanliness issues such as mold, cockroaches, and bed bugs, as well as negative experiences with rude or unhelpful staff. The hostel's location is considered convenient and walkable by some, and a few reviewers found the price affordable. However, problems with uncomfortable beds, safety concerns, and misleading photos were common complaints. Only a very small number of guests had a positive experience, mentioning friendly staff and good facilities.
