The hostel is in a good location. Toilet was really wet and dirty. Breakfast area has no chairs enough for guests. They are no dishes enough which is common you see guests washing their owner plates and stuff to start having coffee, food etc. They don't care about guests at the breakfast, I couldn't understand that environment, looks like every guests are just another one. The only one think was good: my bed was cleaned and smalling really good. I didn't enjoy the full experience in this place.
