This hostel is conveniently located (close to the metro and sights) but the area is a little seedy. The place was clean and quiet, but doesn't have an overly homely or exciting atmosphere. Good for the price we paid. Owner friendly but a little strange. More

What a place. Located in a dodgy area of town across from a corner with tons of prostitutes. The reception was unhelpful, didn't even know how to place a call out. That said it was pretty cheap, quiet and the beds were comfortable. There's a metro stop nearby so its easy to get anywhere in the city. Definitely gives you... More

I don't usually stay at hostels but have in the past. When I booked this place it said it was a hotel and mentioned nothing about the shared bathroom. Needless to say we were a little let down upon arrival. The owner seems overly pushy for you to stay there, showing us all of the rooms he had to offer... More

I'm very disappointed!The manager lacks administrative ability,the manner is bad. Hot water is small, sometimes hot water doesn't come out of the shower. Our food was stolen in public kitchen!!! If you want a good journey, please do not stay there! More
