Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests appreciated the excellent location of the hostel, with easy access to attractions and friendly staff. However, many reviews highlighted significant issues with cleanliness, including dirty rooms and bathrooms, as well as excessive noise from nearby clubs and parties, making it difficult to sleep. Overall, while the location is a strong point, the cleanliness and noise levels detracted from the experience.AI-generated from customer reviews
