Easy going, there’s a grocery store across the street, staff is nice, friendly and clean. My first time in a hostel so not familiar with listening when people next room is snoring or packing while I was trying to sleep so …. You might need earplugs.

Decent place! The sheets and bedding were a bit worn out. Mostly clean although there was a can of something lwft bellow my bed. When i asked the front desk to remove it and clean the area, they did not do it and was kept there which made me uncomfortable. There was a smell of old buildings as soon as you come in. Mostly safe, clean and priced right.

the hotel was freezing

The hotel was very cold. They didn't turn off the air conditioner even though I warned them, so I felt cold all night and couldn't sleep. I got sick.
