Short
version:
Great
central
location.
Friendly
staff.
Not
the
cleanest.
Loud.
Not
recommended
for
couples
or
tall
guys.
Me
and
my
girlfriend
stayed
here
for
four
nights
recently
(october).
We
had
reserved
a
private
room
with
two
double
beds.
Upon
arriving,
there
was
some
confusion
about
the
reservation,
because
they
thought
I
was
the
only
one
staying.
We
were
told
this
was
ok
however,
and
left
our
bags
in
the
luggage
room
while
we
waited
for
the
room
to
be
ready.
Upon
returning,
we
were
told
we
had
to
pay
72
euros
on
top
of
the
400£
I
originally
paid
because
we
were
two
people.
I
understand
the
need
to
charge
some
more
for
two
people,
but
it
was
disappointing
to
first
be
told
that
it
was
alright
and
afterwards
having
to
pay
anyway.
The
room
was
not
the
cleanest,
and
the
drain
in
the
shower
was
almost
completely
blocked,
so
that
water
flowed
out
and
onto
the
floor
in
our
room
after
a
2
minute
shower.
The
shower
floor
was
also
sticky
with
old
soapy
water
from
previous
guests.
We
informed
the
staff
about
this
and
they
attempted
to
fix
this
while
we
were
out,
but
the
water
kept
leaking
out
onto
the
floors.
Also
showering
was
a
mess
for
me
as
a
tall
guy,
I
could
not
properly
rinse
my
hair
or
wash
my
armpits
because
of
the
angle
of
the
fixed
showerhead,
and
kept
hitting
my
head
in
the
ceiling.
The
hostel
is
very
loud.
Not
only
from
the
street,
but
there
was
noise
from
the
hall
and
other
guests’
rooms
around
the
clock.
One
night,
the
fire
alarm
went
off
at
6
o’clock
for
no
reason.
One
of
three
days,
our
sheets
and
towels
were
not
changed
during
the
day.
On
several
occasions,
we
saw
that
the
luggage
storage
room,
which
costs
2£
to
use,
was
completely
open
and
seemingly
vulnerable
to
theft.
However,
I
cannot
understate
how
great
the
location
is.
Short
walking
distance
to
whatever
you
should
desire.
The
staff
was
also
super
friendly
(only
downside
was
that
when
we
asked
for
local
food
recommendations,
they
gave
us
clearly
sponsored
coupons
instead
of
actual
recommendations,
kind
of
a
bummer.)
PS:
Afrique
was
kind!
