Good position, near the city center (walking distance). The hostel needs some fixing up. The room for two was spacious, but the bathroom was small. We slept well. Good aspects: luggage storage possibility, comfortable beds, possibility to have breakfast (additional payment needed).

Deformed/sagging mattress, no soap, one towel for everything, noise from other rooms, children running through the hallways screaming. The only "good" thing was the location. Very expensive for what it offers. Maximum $60 room/per night IMO

We had booked a private room and it was quite spacious however the beds were a bit small. Facilities were great however the water pressure in the shower was insane. I feel like being water boarded would hurt less. All my sins were washed away. Location is great and very central to the old town. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
