Terrible hostel with some rooms as dark as cellars. Cockroaches and dirt everywhere. There was a garbage can in the common area that smelled crazy, left there for three days. Decent breakfast, too bad you always have to wait a long time. WiFi only in the common area and with poor quality. The location is good but for everything else I would have liked to give zero.

Dirty hostel, the rooms are practically not cleaned even when other guests leave the room. Even the private bathroom is bordering on decency.Lots of cockroaches everywhere in the common areasThey made us change rooms upon arrival, telling us that the property was fully booked even though we had booked days before.The only positive note for me is the location, very central.
