눉The shower room was tiny. The wifi kept cutting out. I was on the top bunk and every time the girl below moved so did I! Although I said I liked location. I also didn't like it. There were drunk and homeless people hanging around outside day and night. It didn't make me feel safe.
눇I liked the location because it was close to the train and bus station. The staff were helpful and friendly. The room was large.

눉No outside food policy is ridiculous, and they will police it religiously. This makes it more like a hotel with dorms. Whole point of hostels is to be able to cook to save money. The private bathrooms are good but tiny and are a bit of a nightmare especially when cleaning your teeth because a shelf prevents you from rinsing as it keeps smacking into your head. Suggest leaving the door open for bathroom use.
눇Amazing location. Good wifi. Super clean. Very comfortable. Dedicated bathrooms for each room.
