Last resort hostel Went there only because I had no other option. It's far from the center and poorly maintained. I was offered hard ***** by the people who stayed there for a long time. Wouldn't go there, unless I have to.

Good hostel, feels homely, clean, and location is great. Close to city centre and has amazing views. I had read other reviews before arriving but not sure why the place has such poor reviews from others - we certainly feel that this hostel is as good as any other but for a cheaper price.

This is the worst hostel, the staff was really rude with me, I was asking for the manager or supervisor to complain about something and the guy that it was working was challenging me to do the complaint. I send an email to get some help but they didn’t reply to me. No space in the rooms to leave you luggage. Do not stay in this hostel
