Disliked: Cleanliness
This hostel is fine for a night or two, not very clean, bedrooms are kind of set up awkwardly, but the lockers are big enough for all your stuff. The bathrooms weren’t the cleanest and the walls were a bit dirty in my room, but all areas just seemed a bit grimey. The breakfast was cheap and good which was a nice option, there was also a larger kitchen area that a lot of people seemed to be using.
