The facilities were old, but since they were for our family's exclusive use, we had no inconveniences. However, the shared kitchen hours (7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.) were limited, and could be extended.

The picture on the website posted is not the real thing, and be aware of the room condition. What I have booked online is not the room we sleep in. No towels, sheets stink, floor dirty,pillows stinks, and the worse of it all is blood stain all over the comforter. Be prepared not to sleep, all night banging,noise all over the property, people running and screaming. There is no feont desk and ni one ro rech out too in case of any issues. Now it your choice

Very pleasant stay.

Had a great overnight stay. Very clean and welcoming the mattress wasn't the greatest but still managed a good sleep. I never used the kitchen or dining area but it was very clean and if I was here for longer I wouldn't have an issue. Room 2 was cosy everything worked i.e. heating etc. Staff on site were very friendly and made me feel welcome.

Well, you can't expect much from a hostel, it's not like a hotel. But I must say it's a pleasant stay and their assistance for check-in is also nice since it's a self-check-in, I overlooked my email because of the poor coverage. We called them and it was a nice approach.
