7.8/10 Good! (142 reviews)
"Nice hostel, the bed was actually pretty nice but there were no AC in the room and it was impossible to sleep. Not enough toilets per numbers of person but it was clean and the fact that the room was nice is a +++. Not a single place to meet other travelers. I do recommend for a short stay."
