Disliked: Staff & service
The check in process was very unorganised and felt chaotic. I was stuck in the rain for near on an hour trying to converse over text I no regards to my lost booking. Then when I finally did get into the room I saw a sign saying no phone calls or talking yet there was a girl in there on the phone during ungodly hours of the night and extremely loud too and when I made a complaint, the girl just became extremely rude toward me. Was a very unpleasant experience.

Awful.
I spent 2 hours trying to check in, via app as it says on the web/msg that they send you from the property, I sent txt and called through all the numbers they have, no response at all. The front door is closed, so there's no way to get in, someone opened the door for me, and the guy at the reception said he finished his shift, but took me to the room anyway, my bed was clearly used (which I confirm later when another guy from the room told me that a random person that wasn't staying at the hostel slept there days before and it was dirty since then), no lock door on the room, and no door for the locker. I went to the other hostel a few blocks away, and again, about 45' waiting for the receptionist who was outside, and the phone to contact them when they were not there was lying on the desk. She finally gave me another room that was tiny, 'capsule' room, the door doesn't even open properly because the structure is in the middle. No space for the luggage, the mattress was harder than sleeping on the floor.
The toilets are dirty, no toilet paper, I showered with cold water 3 times as there was not hot water at all (winter).
There are about 3 forks in the kitchen, the fridges smell auper bad, tables are dirty, cleaning products are lying down on the hallways (window cleaner or bleach, nothing that belongs there).
Staff is not helpful at all, there's no staff, just a few volunteers.
The reception at the hostel was closed 3 of my 5 days stay.
