The best part about this hostel is the free internet services. Overall not worth it. It's in the seediest part of town, policemen stopped me on the way to and from the hostel a few times to tell me not to be here "This is not a safe place". The electricity in the room was unreliable. Therefore the light for the bathroom and the A/C only worked on occasion.
