There's little privacy, you'll pay to use the kitchen, it's pretty dirty, and it's far from the center, but if what you need is a cheap spot, look no further! On the plus side, the staff was friendly, it's not far from the big Buddha overlooking the city and the wifi worked great. ##### Lauryn Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pavol, Slovakia Oct 18, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice clean hostel close to city center Very nice and clean hostel close to city center and bus station (10min. walk).
