Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location
Negative: Too many people (staff of the hostel as well) smoking weed/cannabis and partying too loud:( their TV is LOUD at night until 1-2 am and when sleeping above it it’s impossible me to sleep even with earplugs!!
Summary: I will not come back, I did not like the management. They allow drunk people to do whatever they want, no strict rules!
