I had a issue with the payment and lose a several time trying to solve it with the property and they didn’t resolve it because they said they would pay a tax but anyway even try to understand my side and talk with the booking company. They compensated the payment without my permission even I telling them I’d have a trouble paying other tax, and also it wasn’t the way I wanted pay for it, they didn’t listen me and did it and I just realised it half month later. I don’t know how they have access for it, so be careful.
Also the hostel is very very noisy in the whole night, a lot of people drunk around and it is in a very far and isolated area.

This was a good hostel but not great. The “J” rooms need a shower that’s closer. Maybe convert the kitchen that was out of order.

if you like to sleep DO NOT STAY HERE it is sooooooo loud at night and you can hear everything through the walls. The doors are so loud and you can hear every conversation through the walls. We also booked a “Private 8 Person Dorm” which said “Room Facilities- Bathroom” So we assumed it had a bathroom but no they are communal bathrooms which is in the very small print. Very misleading.

Huge hostel with lots of choices to make you happy

This was by far the biggest hostel with the most to do than any hostel I have ever stayed in the world. I love how everything is set up for numerous places to chill comfortably. Two different buildings with pianos and one has a guitar. Pool table, dart boards grill, bar, nightclub below ground and activities every day. Don’t let me forget to mention the huge kitchen. The biggest kitchen in any hostel I have ever stayed in. Maybe because this hostel is huge. They’ve been doing this since 1907 and these folks know what they are doing and do it well. I definitely recommend that you check this place out!

Very good location
