The good thing is that the room is big and washroom is clean (acceptable), by the way, the staff are nice as well. But the heater in the room does not work, so it is a bit cold when sleeping. It seems there is not hot wash water in any bathrooms, so it takes some time to find one

Very good hostel, very secure. The staff is very nice and it's clean. It's well located. Maybe one negative thing: there are only two computers with internet access, I think it's not enough
