I was on 5th floor and there was no common area which made it difficult to socialize and get to know new people. However, you can always use coach surfing hangout to find friends and people yo explore the area with.
The location was perfect and allowed me to see everything by walking and I did not use any public transportation during my stay. Also. you can find anything such as restaurants, supermarkets, laundry ....etc The staff were friendly and providing help when needed.

I signed up for all-female room but on my 3rd night, there was a guy in the room. Uncomfortable for me and a Brazilian lady who also signed up for an all-female room. Staff said it wasn't in their records that we signed up for an all female room. Oh well. Also there is no staff from 8PM-8AM.
I loved the location. Super near everything - old town, restaurants, sights, train station was just across the hostel. The safest and best-rate money changer was just at the 1st floor of the building. Staff were super accommodating and helpful. There was a washing machine.

There are no own bed light or socket at your bed. So, I felt a bit uncomfortable when I woke up early and came at the late night but i dont want to disturb everyone by turning on the light in the room.
The location is great. Easily walking to the old town, finding restaurants and shopping.
