Anything would be better

Please se attached pictures to see that we are not exaggerating. Where to even start. The room has earlier suffered heavy water damage, it wasnt cleaned before arrival because we found used candy wrappers. It is ant infested and has multiple ant catchers without much success. The floor is uneven of The water damage, The showerbooth is broken and leaking. You could only choose between scorching temperatures or no water at all. But The toilet actually worked without complaint and they recently installed a hairdryer. Oh, and the AC without a controller and out of reach worked but sounded like a giraffs last breaths. 0/10 would recommend, if I ever get a serious disease on my continuing travel, I know this place was The start of it.

Stay away!

Terrible. Absolutely terrible... No AC, ditry and noisy. People are smoking inside and I found ashes in one of the drawers. Check in later than time for check in - the check in time was set to 15.30 and I was told to wait intil 16.00 because they were "cleaning" the room (the room and especially the bathroom was not cleaned at all!!!). Not posible to open any kind of window because the only window in the room was placed in the loft (good design when it's raining - be alert of water in the room if you have the window open while it's raining).

The host walks you down a haleay where people are smoking indoors. Unlocks a room and points to what bed is yours. After you look on the floor you see a bib cockroach! And host quickly makes you go back to the loby to avoid the problem at hand.

Budget Accommodation

The place was really for the budget traveler. Extra for towels sheets. Several flights of stairs, not for the elderly such as us. No heating, we had to sleep with our clothes on to keep warm, no soap just an empty dispenser. There was a shared kitchen which was a plus.

Never book a room in this dirty place

This hostel is a scam. Very filthy and horrible place to stay. The room we got did not have a bathroom - we got keys from public bathroom instead. For our complains that the room does not look like the one on picture staff member responded that the picture was taken 5 years ago. For the complain that the furniture looks differently and it is basically different room came no answer. The reception, kitchen and relax area are dark and hostile - when you look up you find out that it was a car repair shop before and It has been changed to hostel for scamming tourist. After 1,5hour of trying to get a normal clean room we gave up and left for other place.
This was supposed to be the 3bed room - had 4 beds but totally different as in the pictures
The lock in the room was a joke
Our room didn’t get a bathroom - we got key from outside bathroom
Not really queen size bed I hoped for

It was a nice property, but it would be better if they put roommates together based on age. We were with three older ladies who did not care for us and were rude to us. Going in, our roommates found out we only spoke English, but they were clearly talking about and complaining about us when we were showing common courtesy. They seemed to have been there a while too. They were very loud and did not care for us. Staff gave us our sheets and were never seen again, and we needed to find them to check out. We felt very uncomfortable in our room, and the bathrooms were disgusting. It was decent enough, but I would not suggest this hostel for young people traveling around.

Filthy mattress, paid for a room but it was downgraded with not partial refund. They charge you for sheets, for the locker, for the towel and they charge you for dobious tax, and you do not know in advance if you reserve online. The mattress does not have a cover and you can be exposed to catch something ugly. Can't believe it is allowed to stay open!

Although the staff was EXCELLENT the whole hostle experience sucked... I only needed 4 hours to shower and set my luggage down it ended up costing me more than a fancy hotel and they even tried to charge 12€ for the use of the shower and clean towels, it cost me 22€ from the train station and then 31€ from the hostle to the bus station 4 hours later plus a 10€ fee for late check-in due to the immigration stop between France and Italy that resulted in a 2 hour delay of my arrival. My advice is to beware of hostle and their hidden fees.. in my case a stay at 4 seasons may have been a better deal price and comfort wise, but the staff was amazing.

Péssima escolha

Péssimo hotel. As fotos enganam à primeira vista. Parece um lugar limpo, arrumado é aceitável de estar, mas foi a pior experiência que tive em toda a Europa. Meu voo atrasou e tive que pagar 25€ de taxa por pessoa por “me atrasar” para o check-in, sendo que já havia pago toda a diária do dia em que cheguei. Além disso, nos cobraram aluguel POR DIA da roupa de cama e das toalhas que eu e minha família iríamos utilizar. Como se não fosse o suficiente, o quarto que peguei estava extremamente sujo! O vaso sanitário estava podre, o chão do quarto nunca tinha visto uma vassoura, o box então… Enfim, definitivamente não volto a ficar nesse lugar e não indico que ninguém fique. É melhor pagar um pouco mais e ficar em um lugar confortável e limpo.

La peor experiencia que he tenido en toda mi vida

El lugar no corresponde a las fotos mostradas en el anuncio, es un lugar que desee la entrada tiene mal aspecto, huele mal y en general, se ve sucio. Entrando a la habitación que pague, igualmente un lugar súper sucio, las paredes y pisos sucios, en el baño parecía que los shampos eran de los huéspedes anteriores, había botellas por doquier de ellos. La cortina del baño sumamente sucia, daba desconfianza tan solo pensar en tocarla. Los muebles, en muy malas condiciones. El espacio no corresponde a los metros cuadrados que decía en anuncio de la habitación que contraté. Por todo esto, preferí hacer mi check out a los pocos minutos y quedarme en otro alojamiento por menos dinero y mucho mejores condiciones.
