        Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room
        Stayed 1 night in February 2020

        Dorm is a Sauna”

        The AC mixed dorm is probably the hottest and most unpleasant I've stayed in for years. The dorm is nice and spacious but only had one aircon vent for the whole room, far from my bed. Even sleeping with the curtain open all night and nothing over me, it was boiling and I lay there sweating, unable to sleep - the fan does not reach this bunk either. The staff set the room to 24 and removes the control. That temp is fine if you are standing in the middle of the room but it's several degrees warmer in the bed - I've slept in cooler dorms with fan only. When I pay for AC I expect to be able to sleep without sweating. Such a shame as everything else here was nice.

        Great location, near enough to walk to the hustle and bustle but far enough to get good sleep and peace. (it does look quite dodge outside because its under construction). Nice spacious dorms, very thin blanket though and the aircon is switched off from 11-5:00 and then blasts the entire night. Very basic facilities, no tea/coffee/oil etc. or a good common area to eat. Have to ask to put gas on so that I could cook (I understand they are being careful though) overall it's clean and convenient although it is lacking a backpackers vibe.

        Очень хороший уютный хостел. Приветливый персонал. Действительно чисто, тихо. Комната у нас была отдельная, туалет и душ на этаже. Но мы были одни на этаже. Расположение очень удобное. Не хватило: мыла в умывальнике, зеркала в комнате. Было бы здорово организовать бесплатный прокат зонтиков и коврик для пляжа.
