Pros:

Location near train station. No smell of smoke. Perhaps this place is okay for 1-2 nights, but no more than that. I would say you get what you pay for...

Cons:

Sketchy people around the hotel. Dirty floors. No air conditioning and it's forbidden to open the windows, so in heat wave it's horror to be inside. We were given only 2 small towels (we were 2 people). The common corrdiros have very damp air. Walls are scratched or dirty in the room.

Never again!
Pros:

The staff were polite and nice. Location was good because it’s right by the central station but VERY NOISY AT NIGHT.

Cons:

The hostel with 6 people in one room had only one small window that we couldn’t fully open (locked)!! And no ventilators or any ventilation/ air conditioning. And this with 38 Degrees Celsius!! It was disgusting!! The bathroom was very moldy also with mo ventilators…………. From the 8 nights i paid for i only slept there 1 night.

Всё хорошо кроме невозможности открыть окно в жару.
Pros:

Удобное расположение! Регистрация работает до ночи- это хорошо!

Cons:

В комнате очень душно. Было жарко и нечем дышать. Воздух аж горячий! Да, работал вентилятор, но он особо не спасал. Минус - не возможно открыть окно для свежего воздуха. Там защита стоит и это очень плохо. Если есть потребность защиты, то лучше поставить решетку, но иметь возможность полностью открывать окно для свежего воздуха.
Понимаем что с кондиционером за такую цену не найти отель, но хотя бы открытое окно и свежий воздух было бы решением.
