The stay was just fine and exactly what I expected. However, as I was checking out they wanted to charge my card and threatened to call the police. I had paid in advance with Expedia and later found my receipt. The staff are excellent but the manager/owner is a complete a--hole. I'm legally trained and I intend to sue them for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

They didn’t give me a towel. They didn’t show me where the shower was. I couldn’t find a shower, I saw only the sink and the toilet. It was very uncomfortable. This hostel does not make its money.

Please make showers more private and doors that actually close. Insufficient security for rooms and lockers are not big enough. Bathrooms need hand towels or paper towels, that's just basic accommodation expectations

This hostel was okay. I booked two people dorm, which turned out to be an annex to the main building. My bedroom was not like the pictures in the website; it was very small and lacked carpet. The floor and bed were squeaky, and when I placed my backpack on the floor, it collected white ash. The largest concern was the lack of security in the building. My bedroom had no lock and anyone comes in at any time. The tiny locker could barely fit an iPad, let alone larger devices like a laptop. The breakfast was only served after 8:30, which is quite late for a morning person. Overall I didn't get why this property had relatively high rating. Perhaps the experience would be different in the main building.

This was the first time I stayes at a hostel. I was a bit apprehensive about sharing a room with complete strangers and using shared facilities. But now I regret having lost the chance to do that in my previous trips. The place is beautiful, clean, well equipped and meticulously maintained. The staff are real gems. Truly caring and helpful. Cleaning ladies are salt of the earth. They prepare you pancakes every morning and then clean every surface and crevice spotless. And the fellow travellers are incredibly considerate. So if you are looking for an excellent place centrally located walking distance to all attractions and some lovely conversations with people from all over the world look no further. This is it.

When I arrived to check in, my reservation should have had 2 beds but only had 1 booked due to an error in the booking system. This didn’t work for my time at the hostel. The staff said I could cancel my booking with them and get a refund. Several days later they issued a partial refund but won’t stay true to their word with a full refund. I have reached out to them but they are refusing to issue a full refund like they said they would.

I booked last minute, so I paid a premium. They seem to do as best that they can with the set up, but I have to say that taking your shoes off at the front door lead to a really foul smell. There seemed to be more shoes than guests.
