This was my first time staying at a hostel and I wished I could've had a better experience. The check-in was smooth, but they charge an extra traveler's fee/tax, which is fine because it's locally regulated, but it was not previously mentioned to us. We enjoyed the location and will endorse the great comfort of the beds. We also made much more use of the common area than most guests, using the kettle to boil water, storing our food in the fridge, and eating meals at the large table.
However, we had several issues with the private bathroom. First, was that after a toilet flush, it took about 5min for the water tank to completely fill and was quite loud. When we reported this to the front desk, she immediately called to have someone come look, but after waiting an hr and no one in sight, we headed out to sightsee. When we came back, the toilet now took 10-15min to fill, but was very, very quiet. Second, was the shower, which didn't have a door and sprayed water onto the floor. They forgot to provide us with a bathmat until the second to last day. The bathroom door itself was very squeaky.
The walls of the room are also very thin and while the beds provided good rest, a few girls who stayed next door came back around 4am one night, talking and laughing and woke all of us up. However, we appreciated that they did quiet when we lightly knocked on the shared wall.
