Room:

"I really didn't have much of a problem with staying there (we were only there for a couple nights, & i can put up with funny smells and dingy rooms for that long), but they charged me 4% for using a credit card to pay when checking in." — source Hostelworld

"I can only comment on the double room which is basically a cellar filled with a double bed. It is not the same as in the photo,every footstep can be heard from above,people entering/exiting adjacent rooms,totally misinforming front desk staff,no credit cards only cash and upfront(no wonder." — source Venere

"the first day they told us that our room it wasn t ready because some pipes was broke,so we stay one night in a really small and really dirty room. the other day our room it was very good." — source Hostelworld

"Had to change rooms for some reason which sucked because the stairs are so steep. Lady at reception made us check out first instead of just moving our bags to the new room." — source Hostelworld

"one key for a room of 8 i found strange, cause it meant most the time we left the room unlocked, and the stairs gave me a workout whenever i had to go up them." — source Hostelworld
