Ew. Really. The place was filthy, unorganised, and it smelled. The staff doesn't make it any better, it seems clueless and treat you rudely. The bunkbeds are very close together.

I have to say that this place is clearly run by people motivated by money. The standard of accommodation was definitely not worth the cost. The staff, probably being paid less than they deserved, made up for a lot of inadaquacies. I'd stay clear of Cheap Hostels (this is the franchise name) on whole. more
