This is a Trusted Review. Why?
location is quite good, but the service provided is desisntersado in most of its employees, bathrooms are cleaned once a day by which are sucios.algo me paso in thing personal is opened my luggage because they broke my twinned, when claim Act told me that you attend the police but they not is responsible for theft shacks. What missed was 32 gb iPod Touch 4 G. which was lost in total.
in my personal point I do not think that they were my bedroom business if not the cleaning staff. for my was in bad time choose this place to host me...

DO NOT STAY HERE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES! The stairs smell of urine, one group had a mouse in their room 2 doors down from myself, the staff are up themselves (unless of course you are part of the cool group, staying there long term or work there), there are not enough showers for females and the whole 4 nights I was there, one toilet and one shower were out of use. Showers full of mould.
How this hostel gets good reviews I am absolutley astounded, do the reviewers actaully stay here or are they put up in a special area that we dont know about that is in mint condition, like a palace compared to the projects where we stay? Are they paid...I would like ot meet these reviewers as this Hostel SUX! I have been backpacking and staying at Hostels for 10 years and this one is THE WORST ever. Congratulations!
Extra points to the Bar man who thinks he is the best ever. Mate you are not what you think you are, very unappealing so get real. It is a real shame as is such a bonus for a Hostel to have a bar but the bar man ruined the experience.
