The hostel has some downsides worth mentioning. One major issue is that the room allows shoes inside, which made the space feel less clean. There was also a musty, unpleasant odor likely due to poor ventilation. The room was quite noisy at night — the person in the bunk above me was frequently rummaging through her luggage, which disrupted my sleep. While I understand that guest behavior is beyond the property’s control, it still affected my experience.
