Liked: Probably the only good thing to say about this hostel is that you get a free drink per night you stay.

Disliked: On all but two occaisions, the front gate AND front door were unlocked and open. As the reception desk / staff is not the first thing that you see when you enter the building, it is possible that you can enter the dorms without anyone seeing you at all. The beds were the worst we have slept in on our travels and the ladders to get the to the top bunks are highly dangerous as on more than one occaision, they slipped off the side of the bunk onto the floor as you were climbing up them. Once you did try and sleep, the bunks moved and creaked no matter how little you moved. There was also a lot of noise that could be heard all across the hostel from the kitchen and common areas. This place really portrays itself as something that it isn't
