Summary: The only positive thing about this hostel was its location. Unfortunately, everything else was terrible and made for a truly awful experience. I would never stay here again and strongly advise others against it—especially if you value cleanliness and hygiene. The bathrooms were filthy and in poor condition. Our room’s bathroom desperately needed maintenance and repairs, and even the common bathrooms were disgusting. I never once saw a housekeeper during my entire stay, which explains the complete lack of upkeep. Hygiene was a major issue throughout. While the staff was friendly at check-in, that was the only interaction that felt decent. After that, the overall quality and service were extremely poor. Save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere. This place is not worth it.
