Good for an overnight stay but not more

Good hotel quality and price

  • It's the first time I see that they offer dinner at a hotel, but the girl who served me, upon seeing that there was no longer a kind of curry that she used to put on the rice, started scraping the plate with a spoon and then with a fork, giving me all the leftovers, it really seemed very disgusting to me, it was better to tell me that there was none left and that's it, it seemed like a scene from when they feed the children at the orphanage 😂 And another thing is that they should control the homeless people because they make a lot of noise at night and don't let you sleep

Great location, ideal for backpackers. Small and dated room but good value.

The shared bathroom was clean. The dinner and breakfast were not too bad, and the location is very convenient (right on the first floor of the building). The stay also includes beer, wine, and soda, which is a nice bonus. The small room with a sink also has a tiny fridge inside, which is quite convenient.

  • The room was a bit too warm, but still manageable to sleep in. It also looked smaller and older than the photos. Dinner didn’t include any meat, but considering the price, it was understandable. Fortunately, breakfast included boiled eggs.

The building is from 1891, so it's almost expected to be falling apart. But the structure works well. Upon entering, it can be a bit scary, it's dark and tight, but faucets, showers, everything works well. What surprised me the most was the bed and bath linens: clean and fragrant! Remember that you can borrow a towel upon deposit. They serve dinner (quite average, worth it if you're lazy to go out or short on money) and breakfast (very complete, has bread, waffle, egg, coffee, hot chocolate...). It's easy (although time-consuming) to get from the ferry and has easy access to city attractions.

  • The outlets are all horizontal and a bit loose, if you have an adapter you will suffer a bit to keep it in. But in the room I stayed in, there was a USB port (although it doesn't provide fast charging). Although it is generally very quiet, the hostel's plumbing makes a lot of noise at night. Check-in is at 4 pm and check-out at 11 am, a lot of time difference.
