Having never stayed in a hostel, I was not real sure it was the right thing for me. I am a 76 year old woman, single and thought it would be noisy and more appropriate for a 20-30 year old. To my surprise there were guests of all ages, from all over the world. My stay was very pleasant!
I stayed in a mixed shared dorm room another risky move by me however it was great with 3 women and 1 young man from Austria.
It wasn’t the cleanest place. The bed was so creaky. It was relatively quiet.

Advertised as having ac but the property doesn’t have AC at all. I asked to leave and get a refund but no refund receipt was provided. I hope everything goes accordingly to plan and they get the ad corrected.
