I think we got lucky room wise, it's not amazing or comfy but I did manage to sleep (the bar is low).
The check in was okay. Do remember its only between 5 and 7 though, which is extremely inconvenient and unusual for a hostel.
The house itself isn't modern, that's fine but there are many small but major issues:
- someone who seems to be from the staff but claims to be a customer smoking joints, drinking vodka and playing music from 10 pm until he passed out just outside the hostel door, and got angry at me when I asked him to not to take the music inside when he was trying to. There are signs everywhere saying no alcohol and no smoking, and yet.
- we weren't given the remote to the a/c during a heatwave
- there is no staff on site (or only ones that pretend not to be staff) when issues like these arise
- cleanliness was okay at most
- super inconvenient to have to take your own pillow case and bed sheets
- insanely squeaky leather mattresses, every single move and turn is announced to all the roommates :')
- cat food openly around so cats must be living in the building
- no fire alarms or smoke monitors
The breakfast is the redeeming quality and saves this form a two star review. Indeed plenty of food, as many complimented, but some things are expired and after last night I am not sure how to trust the cleanliness. But putting that aside really quite okay.
We were also lucky bathroom wise and we're keen to NOT shower and avoid that whole hurdle while here.
Overall, it's okay, you can definitely stay a night here and save some money, but it's really low in my hostel experiences. I would reconsider for staying more than one.
P.s. owners responses to problems are that there is a free cancellation policy??!
