The lock on the 8-bedded doem room was damaged & it took 10 mins to ooen the door on 2 occassions. The technician or employee was away for 2 days. On the 3rd day the lock failed & lock had to be broken in after 3 different people tried for over 1 hour to ooen the door using the key.

The room was clean and value for money. The cleanliness and tidiness of the common area and corridor can be improve. e.g The sink was full of dirty mugs, not wash from morning. Water containers left in the corridors outside the guest rooms.

Very cheap! Friendy staff. Nice balcony as the "common area". Close to city centre and "Sunday Markets".
Smelly hostel, but so was the city a bit here and there.
Only two toilets with small showers for everyone to share.
Towels were washed, but has lots of hair residuals from other guests.
