“Don’t even bother checking in: run!!!”
I’m not the review writing person normally, but it there was absolutely nothing I liked about this location. We were amazed that this hostel actually had good reviews, are they fake, our bought? Or did the hostel really crash and burn from a good state to the abysmal state it is in today?
