The worst hotel ever! I was staying for one night and in the middle of the night the electricity went out! Some people were even stuck in the elevator! We had to call the fire department to get the people out of the elevator! Also the room stinks like mad!!

Poor service and untidy place
I was about to leave my luggage but one of the staff says that they can store the luggage but there’s a fee and I told him that I don’t have cash and I will not be too long I just need to buy something and the storage accept only cash and he directed me to the train station but when I supposed to leave I saw him accepting luggage from other guest for free. The place was dirty and they don’t have soap and shampoo in their showers. There’s a lot of areas that needs improvement. I’ve stayed in two St Christopher hostel before and this is the worse experience that I had.
