The only reason I am not giving this hostel the lowest possible rating is because the staff were helpful and the price is good for the location. HOWEVER, IT IS INFESTED WITH BED BUGS!!!!! My bites did not appear until half a week after my stay, but after reading reviews from other customers who also got bitten, and seeing the lack of hygiene in this hostel firsthand, I am convinced that the bites came from this hostel.
It is clear that the rooms, let alone the beds, are not regularly maintained, and there is this dank mustiness to the room the moment you step in. In addition, the bathrooms and showers are only located on ONE level of the hostel, and there is only ONE sink there (although there is one sink in each shared room). As such, going to the bathroom in the middle of the night is a feat, and if you're trying to get ready during peak bathroom hour in the morning, good luck. Also, on my first night, one of the showers did not drain. It was disgusting. Thankfully, it seemed to have been fixed after the first night.
I should have read all the reviews before I booked this. It is a good price for the location, but the lack of cleanliness and subsequent trauma from bug bites is NOT worth it!! Stay somewhere else.
