눉The toilets and showers were as clean as they could be but were in bad condition which made using them not so nice. Kitchen is very small. Next time I will go to an all female hostel. I know it was a mixed dorm but I felt uncomfortable being the only woman in with 5 men.
눇Staff were really friendly and were very helpful with my gluten free diet. Beds were clean.
