| What I liked about it | The hostel's own description of itself sounded fantastic, and it was one of the cheapest we could find. Also located near a metro station. |
| What I didn't like about it | If you have not already booked, do NOT book here! My friend and I stayed at a number of inexpensive hostels across Europe, and this was by far the absolute worst. There are no locks to prevent people off the street from wandering into your room, and most of the other guests are homeless junkies rather than travellers. Our room, the "kitchen", and the bathroom were disgustingly dirty. There were actually feces all over the floor of the bathroom. The ceilings in our room and the bathroom were decayed from water damage. The continental breakfast was basically a loaf of bread found in a common room filled with dirty dishes. Very gross place, gives me the heeby jeebies just thinking about it again. |
| What was the staff like | Average |
| Would I stay there again | No |
| Overall Vibe and Opinion | It was absolutely disgusting. I wasn't expecting the Hilton, but there should be some standard for cleanliness. I find it hard to believe that it is legal for them to operate this place. It is old, falling apart, and filled with sketchy SKETCHY people. |
