The place is warm, there is a tidy kitchen and a washing machine and dryers, each floor has 2 toilets and 2 showers, it seems we have been a lot and it still hasn't felt like this in terms of the toilets. In the evening it's fun to exchange experiences and talk with people who never travel either

I stayed for 2 nights on a live tour. Since it's a hostel, I didn't get the same level of service as a hotel, but the bed in the room was perfect for a single person and didn't feel cramped. I was interested because there were many foreign customers and the staff spoke English. It was amazing!

Stayed at the room 202. They use this room to store excess linens and sheets. The room smelled almost rotten and very moist. It was really uncomfortable.For paying 70 usd for just one night of stay, they don't even make your bed and making you do that yourself. The envoirment is far from hospitable and from where I come from it would be considered an insult.They also rent the towels and they lock most of the hotel after evenings.Overall a terrible experience and I don't get how this place received such a high score, considering how terrible it truly is.

We had a room for three people with tatami mats and futons. There was a shared kitchen and shared toilets. Everything was very clean and the employees were very friendly. We were even able to store our luggage for free after check-out.
