My experience at the hostel didn't really go as I expected. Chris was really listening and helpful. Tasks and schedules took place as agreed. But... Unfortunately I think the hostel has lost quality in recent years. Cleanliness was not up to standard. I also regularly saw cockroaches. And the clientele is no longer as young and party-loving as it used to be. I failed to feel comfortable during my month-long experience. Obviously, this remains my opinion and my expectations were perhaps too high.

Very mellow hostel, which has its advantages and disadvantages. All in all had a very good time!
