★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place looks really run down, its kinda more a crack house then a hostel:)
We payed around 160$ for the room (2 nights), even the half would be to high.
I think with a bit work and money you can made a great place out of it.
The rooms and floor has a weird smell and everywhere it looks dirty. The showers, toilets, rooms, the walls, the roof its really everything.
But the location is great, for that 5 stars, but the rest, sorry I couldn’t give more then 1 Star.
Coupon parking is possible direct behind the Fuel Station, close to the hotel.
Weekend is free and during the week day from 08:00 - 06:00pm you have to pay.
The first 2 hours are free of charge.
Hostel provides also free parking, if you ask in time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The place is very clean and comfortable, the only problem and sadly the biggest is the lack of respect from the staff to the customers, lack of professionalism and respect. The person who introduced himself as the second in command (he did not introduce himself or answer me when I asked the name) simply does not know how to express himself correctly with a client, he treats me in a rude way instead of explaining to me why I cannot be in the kitchen or In the living room, he addressed me in a bad way and making nasty gestures as if I was bothering him. Unfortunately I came looking to have a good time and you can de-stress and in the end I consider that loadge in you city was a bad decision. Unfortunately I will never come back here. Keep this in mind when making your reservation.
I want to say clearly that was a old man with beard, because here is also another two ladies working and they are very nice .

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's not clean, but honestly, it's cheap, the people staying there are nice - and it's not as bad as many of the other views suggest. In some ways I like it more than Nomads, in other ways it's slightly worse. The smell is a little disconcerting in the hallways and the floor is wet in places for no reasons, the elevator is out of order, many toilets are out of order - but still it's got a rustic charm. If a new owner could give it a bit of a spruse up it could be really nice, but that would take some money I guess. So for a cheap stay, If you can get in a 4 bed dorm for around 10 euros on booking.com - it's worth it. There's a chance your dorm won't be full and then you'll get a fairly restful sleep.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Booked a room with a bunk for 5 nights and it was a no refund booking. After the 2nd night I started getting itchy. Time to leave! Room was noisy and coldish, because there was no handle on the window to close it. The door latch had something plastic behind to allow the lock to insert itself into it. The door frame was cracked as if it had been bashed in. The toilet cubicle floors were always sticky. You get what you pay for. Hope they put the non refundable amount I paid towards some maintenance.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Short stay however we didn't know that the kitchen and lounge area will only open from 7AM and we have to use it before that due to early morning flight. Would be nice to know beforehand for me to plan ahead. It is pretty close to the city and short walk is good. Security is good but would be nice if the corridors are well lighted and not smelly. Thats all!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutely terrible. Don’t bother staying here at all, it was bearable a few years ago when I last stayed due to good people. Now it’s more rundown than ever and a lot of questionable characters.
Some of the staff are generally rude and unhelpful, old guy with the beard especially. Generally run down. Dirty, smells, beds are in comfy.
Just don’t bother - 0 stars isn’t an option

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Stayed in triple room with my kids. Room was relatively clean but it was only on the surface. Carpet was damp and slightly sticky, window sill was filthy. There were only 2 toilets and 2 showers per floor of 30 rooms! They were communal. My biggest issue was cleanliness of showers. There was garbage in the stalls and they felt dirty. Kitchen was reasonably clean but again only on the surface. We watched the communal areas be vacuumed but nothing was wiped down. Food that was dropped on the tables in the morning was still there in the evening.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not worth it. The price is cheap and we're used to not living in a palace but it wasn't ok. To give an idea, there was no shower head in the shower! Plus, all the guests are long-termers almost no backpackers, everyone is just staring at you and you're meeting not only kind people.
