Bed in 6-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room

Stayed 1 night in August 2023

A quite messy place”

For me, the location is ok, but for backpacker that bring heavy beg, it is quite difficult and tired to climb the stairs. Then inside of hostel is too messy.

Location, staff, bed, room were comfortable”

This is not going to be confused with a Hilton, but for a basic room for a fraction of the cost, close to the train station, and open throughout the night, this hostel is one of the best ones I have stayed at.

Felt like at home”

The owner said "how are you?" to me whenever he saw me. I was really glad that he did so because I felt like I was at home. The facilities were old the stairs made big sound, but it was a good experience for me.
