I have stayed in hostels all over the world so I am making this comparison based off experience. The PROS: The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The rooms themselves were very clean. The area is very close to the train station and close to bars and restaurants that are open late. The CONS: The location is very bad. It is loud at all hours so you have to expect that if you want to have the window open (otherwise it gets very hot). Very limited number of bathrooms and not clean. There were MANY people staying here and there were not enough bathrooms to accommodate how many people were staying here. The bars in the area and the area of town seem to encourage people to get drunk and there was very nearly a fight while we were trying to have dinner.

The manager, Oscar, was very kind and compassionate and the interactions with other travelers was convivial and enjoyable. It's location in the slum was a drawback, but nothing dangerous happened.

This place is dirty with triple high bunks, 3-4 bunks per room. Also saw couples bunks. Check-in"desk" was an in use kitchen. Located in un safe prostitute zone. I originallybooked a single room. They bait and switched me into a triple bunk room. I declined and left. Of course they had a no refund policy, I think a scam. Hotels.com wasnt much help getting my money back afterwards. I think the property needs to clarify its listing or be removed. I had to submit a reversal of paymentthroughmy ctedit card, thank that got my money back. Careful here, you've been warned.

Everything is fine

Oscar was great!

All bad. Never rent this place. Is the worst. I want my money back. What a dirty place!

Reasonable value.

Nice hotel to stay

When I entered shared room I had to stop and turn away...It was stinky,noisy with snooring men in very unsafe part of the City...never again...yes I did not slept there after all..and lost money on top of basic pay..for late check in...our train was late.

My friend and I did not find the neighborhood as bad but a lot of locals we meet said to be careful cause it’s a shady area of the city. Upon arrival, we couldn’t find the location and was having trouble entering the code to enter. When we entered the place was run down and the elevator did not work. The place was very tight and it’s based on rooms with three bunk beds with hardly any room to move around. There were guys already on the bed we were assigned. It was not maintained and my friend and I did not feel safe. We immediately left the place and booked an airbnb. I contacted the company letting them know we were not going to stay and if we could get a refund. They were first responsive but then left me on deliver. Overall, I don’t recommend this place regardless of gender. It’s not comfortable, not maintained and there was no lockers or closet to place your items.

I would stay here ever again

Unsafe area, building was run down, and it smelled inside

It’s not worth the money. The area of this hostel is around dumpster, graffiti, strange people hanging around. Don’t feel safe. Room doesn’t have AC. The bathroom is dirty. Staffs are nice and helpful. Checked out 2 nights and changed to another hotel.

It was a lot first I couldn’t download the app it’s required there not specific one or at least send a link, I was able to stay no one couldn’t find a help

Misleading listing. This is a bed in a 8 bedder dorm room. I've booked double bed, expecting a private room (as with my other bookings), only to find its not the case. I'm given a double bed bunk bed. Location is right in the middle of a rowdy drinking street, so expect lots of loud musics past midnight. Staff attitude is terrible as well. This is definitely the WORST experience I've had in all my stays of all sort!

Neighbourhood was not good. Unclean area also felt unsafe. But stuffs were really healthful.

No air conditioning unfriendly staff

Great bed and great environments

Hotel sem segura ! Entraram no meu quarto e roubaram minhas joia e intens pessoais e não querem mostram as câmeras

Ma fille et moi avons eu vraiment peur. On a du partager la chambre avec d’autres femmes et on ne pouvait pas barrer la porte. Il faisait très chaud et il y avait des sans-abris qui hurlaient toute la nuit et on a pas pu dormir du tout. La salle de bain et la cuisine étaient mal-propres.
