Liked: they have got a lot of furniture. the rooms were very clean and tidy . each guest has a safe , sofa and it is very secure . the facilities were sharing just because the host was building new shower and new bathroom. i think this hostel will offer private facilities for each guest. nice place , nice people , and nice experience in Lviv.

Disliked: if they finish up their new showers and bathrooms - it will be the top hostel in Lviv

Liked: Very cheap. If all you need is a place to rest your head for a night, then it's not bad.

Disliked: Musty and dirty. The mattresses are paper thin. As soon as I walked in, there was a foul odor, but that went away when I crossed into the main part of the hostel.
