Dirty bathrooms and overcrowded hostel
We were really disapointed, we've been travelling for 3 and half months and these were the most disgusting bathrooms we've been in. First time I felt the need to wear flip flops in the shower! I told the reception that they were filthy and excuses were made about too many people using the shower and nothing changed. Don't forget to bring your own toilet paper as they're often empty! There were too few facilities for the number of people in the hostel. The kitchen was inadequate and filthy so we didn't even use it.
However, we stayed in a private double room on a high floor which was nice and also quiet at night. No complaints with the room but the shared bathrooms and living areas were far from up to scratch. A serious deep clean is needed.

OK men der er stedet som er bedre
Der var en Max alder på 30 år
Dette stod ingensteder hvorfor de gav mig lov til at overnatte alligevel
Roligt sted, men køkkenet åbnede først kl 8 hvilket er temmeligt sent

Tilstrækkelig i 1 dag eller 2
Udemærket hostel, ikke prangende. God placering og god pris. Rengøring haltede en smule, og sengenes fjedre knirkede fuldstændig sindssygt meget.
We booked family room with private bathroom, but we did not use hot water due to pipe line trouble. We could not be helped to use dirty public shower room.
Window could not be closed.
Around the entrance was very noisy until midnight.
