The hostel is real close to the train station - and the center of the city is also not that far away (I also went there by foot). The rooms are clean and the guy at the reception was very friendly. Breakfast is not included, but I really liked the kitchen they have!

The guy on the desk didn't speak any English which might be difficult for some people. We had three cockroaches in our room the night we were there. Its main strength is being so close to the train station which suited us perfectly between our late night ferry arrival and early morning train journey. But thats about it. We didnt feel very safe in the area and people we spoke to said there was nothing to do at all. The hostel offered wi-fi but it hadnt been working for a few days we heard and had no luck ourselves. The rooms were basic and comfortable enough for our one nights stay, but Im glad it was just the one night.

Hostel is not staffed in the afternoon, so had to leave bags in open lobby until staff showed up 4:30 PM. Little to no English. Location near RR station is convenient to get to, but a shabby neighborhood and no decent restaurants

The location of the hostel is great-literally right across the street from the train station.

The hostel was okay! Only the neighbourhood (station)is not clean and doesn't invite you, doesn't make you feel wellcome. Nearby the kiosk..it smells..the city has to clean there.. Luckily the staff at teh reception was very friendly!!! (-: There was also a bulletin board that gives you the timetables, an idea of the coast etc. It was a pity that with 40 degrees you cannot use airco. There is also a lack of lockers for a camera, handbag etcetera, at the reception for example. The terrace on the roof is very nice and I hope the hostel will make it more attractive, with wooden benches/tables. It is a hostel with a lot of potential. They need to invest in the 'atmosphere' and more comfort. It was nice that there was the possibility to cook..it's okay for one pan dishes or just to cook water to make coffee or tea. The showers need new curtains and soaphangers...also in the 'bathroom' there is a lack of hangers or a little chair to put your clothes on,and maybe a mirror.
