The number of people according to room area is very good and the staff is friendly and helpful, the kitchen has all facilities you need to cook what you want, and there is some free food in this kitchen which is so cool.
There is only one toilet for men and not included in the room, so if you need to go to WC in midnight you should walk to it, and i think this is the only negative point in this hostel

Great staff that work behind an incredibly admirable structure. Love that they are so keen on the environment. Good price, not too far from the city center, about an hour walk to the train station, fantastic hostel workers.

It was right opposite the river and easy to travel to the city centre and other attractions .
The hostel itself was okay! But the stay was not very comfortable . Nobody talks to eachother there and you have people living for a very longtime . So not a typical hostel vibe . They say it’s air conditioned but would keep it at 28 making it pretty hot . Wouldn’t recommend there are better places for sure .
