    There was not a common area inside the hostel to chill. Neither a bathroom (after you checkout). They retained my passport until I payed.

    The bed and bathroom were good in the room. The location and WIFI too. I was able to checkin very late at night when my bus arrived.

    There is nothing to "don't like" when you consider price. There is a bit language barrier but we understand each other enough

    Nice location, quiet, kind owners and it was cheap

    • Bed in 6-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room

    The "dorm" room is a joke. I stayed in the 4-bed room. One of them is a queen bed so you might have to share with a stranger. There's almost no space to put your things when there's more than one guest in the room. The shared toilet is in a little closet with a sliding door, so there's no privacy and you can hear everything when someone is in the bathroom.

    Just a few minutes from the center on a quiet street. The hostel wasn't too busy which was nice.

    Wifi was barely working, sometimes not working at all, the AC was also not working, so it was hard to sleep sometimes

    The location was good, close to the center, there was nobody else in the room with me

    Rooms were on the top floor, no balcony. The bed was very hard to reach, because there was also a bunk bed, very close to it.

    Close to the city centre, a stroll away. The owner was very nice. Safe parking place is behind the hotel with the fence, so we parked our motorbikes there.

    Nice clean hostel. I got a room by myself. The owner was very friendly, we couldn't communicate verbal with English but Google translate helped and there was always someone around or to call to help translate.

    It says that one can get breakfast, but there was no option there and we didn't even get a possibility to eat our own breakfast. Many stairs to the room make.it difficult if.someone has difficulties with walking.

    It was peaceful at night. The beds were ok.

    See above If you don't speak the language...you are a bit (a lot) lost!

    Nothing, the owner doesn't speak any English. So...no information about the city or transport facilities to the airport!

    Very poor internet coverage, very slow even when it is available. Private parking is non-existent(the booking description is straight up lying), the neighbors called a tow truck to tow our car because the owner directed us to the "parking lot", which is the area in front of the local residents garages. Neighbors confirmed that this is his regular practice and that they constantly have problems. If you don't want your vehicle towed, I don't recommend this place.

    when we arrived there was no one there, the place was locked and the lights were off. half an hour later a rude little man arrived and took more money then he should’ve. He didn’t speak a word to us in English or even try, he got very frustrated at us and checked us into the wrong room. A cleaner continuously knocked hours before check out and told us to “get out the room”!! also inside there’s very dangerous electrics with exposed wires right next to where you sleep. worst of all was the rudeness of the host though! miles from the bus station AVOID THIS PLACE

    it was an okay bed to stay in

    Hm.... I liked the place very much. The city is maybe not that exciting, but it has nothing to do with the hostel.

    Everything here was so nice. Wifi was good. Good hot shower. 7-8 minutes walk to the center of the city. Supermarket 3-4 minutes away. Very very very quiet. Laundry service. They wash dry and give back the same day. (10 KM in 2021) I loved it here, and would stay here again if I return. I had my own nice room and it was warm and nice.
