The price was way too high for how dirty and old it was. The place was extremely smelly and underconstruction. Our hotel staff gave us a room that was not cleaned and still has previous guest's trash in it

Nice base for operations during the holiday, very basic but this is to be expected in a hostel, after all, it is not a hotel.

I did not like the screeching floorboards. All bathrooms were renovated. Great! The place is very clean. I would stay there again, but on my own.
