Español El personal fue siempre muy amable, pero mi experiencia no fue positiva. Me asignaron una habitación mixta de 16 camas en la que era la única mujer. Los camarotes estaban demasiado juntos, sin separadores ni cortinas, y no había un lugar seguro para dejar el equipaje, solo en la recepción en un piso diferente. Llegué de noche y no tuve opción de cambiar de lugar, pero no me sentí segura. English The staff was very kind and helpful, but my overall experience was not positive. I was assigned to a 16-bed mixed dorm where I was the only woman. The bunks were extremely close together, with no dividers or curtains, and there was no secure place to store luggage other than the reception on a different floor. I arrived late at night and couldn’t change hostels, but I didn’t feel safe.

Pedí cancelación y reembolso y se quedaron con mi dinero. El hostel es fatal, en realidad es más un albergue y se hospedan hombres raros con mala pinta

Horrible, el lugar olía mal, la ropa de cama y la almohada estaba sucia, me robaron pertenencias de mi cama. Parece más un hospital que un hostel, hay muchas personas mayores en mal estado o que parecen estar enfermas.

Es un sitio poco aseado, las camas están rotas, los aseos poco higiénicos, las personas de staff, van entrando como si fueran dueños a cada espacio, las puertas de las habitaciones todas en mal estado, algunas hacen ruidos bastante incomodos.
