It was not as described. It was very old and run down. We had to ask for out sheets to be changed. Noone spoke to each other, not a hostel environment. The 'ensuite' tiny, very dirty and moldy, smelly and communinal toilets down stairs were better. Plus they close everything at 11 pm and you cant even watch tv downstairs, everyone has to return to their room and be quite. Worst hostel experience, and I've been around USA, Australia and China.
