If a beetle crawls across your path in the morning after you had a bad night's sleep in room 3 because there is no mattress to speak of... the morning is stupid despite the good weather.But quiet area, easy to find.

I was meant to be met at the hostel at a pre-arranged time to be let in, but the person meeting me was late. Other patrons at the hostel were smoking inside, so as a non-smoker my stay was not pleasant. …
