The hostel is in a great location and the hosts are very helpful and friendly. We stayed in a twin private room which was spacious and clean, although the bedding could be updated to make it feel cleaner. The bathrooms often were not fully stocked with toilet paper etc. The mens bathroom didn’t have soap and a door on a cubical was missing. The main issue we had was with noise. We have stayed in hostels frequently and I accept noise/ don’t mind it however be aware that the only communal area of the hostel is right outside the bedrooms. We were in the room closest to the bathrooms and communal area and one group decided to dominant the whole communal area at night way past midnight. There were no staff around to regulate this and the host even joked that it was going to be a noisy night when we were getting up early, as if they had no control of the noise or would not support us in asking them to be quiet after midnight. This seemed strange as every other hostel I’ve stayed in have had some kind of regulation around noise, even if they have a bar. This hostel has no bar or restaurant, just a simple sitting area right outside rooms so we would have expected noise to regulated much more than in other hostels we’ve stayed in. Though I don’t blame the hostel for the groups behavior, we felt let down when it was left to us to confront a big group of older men about noise. Otherwise, the host was great and it was a shame our experience was tainted.
