Pros:

Bathroom is a plastic cubicle very hard to have a shirt in it. Towels were dirty as well as the floor. We didn’t sleep much due to extreme noise in front of the hostel and inside in the hall. This Hostel is Super noisy. Check out is at 10 am which is way to early if you want to check out later it is 10€ which I think is a rip off. You also have to pay to store your luggage if you want to arrive early or do side seeing after checkout. Can’t recommend because you won’t be able to sleep.

En general es un buen sitio para quedarse.
Pros:

Bien situado, un lugar tranquilo, el personal muy amable, pudimos dejar las maletas y tomar un café mientras esperábamos al taxi que nos llevaba al aeropuerto.

Cons:

El baño no olía muy bien, subía un olor desagradable de wc y este goteaba al suelo. Además había que ducharse por la mañana porque por la tarde noche cuando llegábamos el agua apenas salía caliente.
