social, sympa, avec l'essentiel
Pros:

employés sympathique, hostel sympa et bon marché, parfait pour ceux qui cherchent des rencontres à l'international et/ou juste un endroit ou poser son sac et dormir, pour passer ses journées dehors à découvrir les lieux

l'état général de l'hostel est vieillot mais sans importance si vous recherchez l'essentiel

petit détail pas évident la 1er fois, la porte semble fermée, il faut passer la main entre des barreaux pour ouvrir le petit loquet peu visible et appuyer sur la mini sonette en haut à gauche entre les barreaux et la porte... ou sinon vous tambourinez comme moi ahahah

Pros:

This is a "smoking hostel". They have a place for smoking but the smoke goes to the whole hostel. If you have allergy, or breathing problem. Don't go there. There are bed bugs too.

Pros:

Es ist sehr laut in der Unterkunft als ich etwas um ruhe gebeten bei einer Hilfskraft (Volontär) nach 1.00 Uhr Morgen,s wurde ich ausgelacht von diesem jungen Mann, ich hatte dort den Wäsche-service genutzt in meiner Wäsche befand sich ein unbenutztes Kondom - der Volontär aus Equator nutze das um mich vor allen Leuten zu demütigen- was braucht der alte Mann noch einen Kondom- ich wurde aus dem Hostel gemoppt.
