2/10 Poor

The facilities are old and outdated,the walls are so thin, you can hear every noise and conversation on the next room, it's noisy even music from an outside kind of pub, small, the beds are more like 70' camping caravan accomodation, I have been many times in hostels, this one of the worst, and because of the cost it is not worthy, I think the good reviews are suspicious to me
