Oh my god what a shitt hole
The photos are not how it is. And you can only check in between 3-8 pm if they have bothered reading your message. When I got there and saw how they had lied too me. And it is worse than any hostel I have ever seen. I canceled my stay there as quickly as possible

The place is fine - bedrooms are clean & comfortable, but the kitchen could use some sprucing up (specifically because the hot plate didn’t work). Also no mirrors in the bathrooms which is annoying and would be a pretty cheap and easy fix...

I booked 3 nights knowing checkin was outside normal reception hours due to late flight. Contacting hostel was not timely conversation and discovered they would not support my request but would meet me 2nd night to grant me entrance key. They did offer to cancel, which was good but i only needed first night cancelled.when i arrived 2nd night for the agreed key collection discovered lock hostel and when i phoned owner says they cancelled everything without my agreement and said there are plenty of other places ..just go look. Imagine being 2nd night in city without secure accomodation and under the assumption you were! Disappointed non repeater bnbto.

alcides lopes, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Check in was quick and simple, and I liked that most things were within 20 mins walk. The bathroom is separate from the showers which is also nice. The place was fairly clean. However, it was clear the place hadn't had a good scrub in a long time. The shower curtains were spotted with mold, the walls needed to be washed, and my room smelled very musty (i bought an air freshener which helped). The bed was awful. It was all springs and sunk down easily. It was also incredibly noisy - along with all the doors that needed oiling. I didn't get much sleep, and I felt very sore come morning. The hotel has wifi and provides toilet paper and hand soap in the washroom, but you need to bring shampoo, body wash, a towel, cloth, etc. There is a small variety store downstairs that may have what you need if you forget anything.

Hotel sofrível .
O hotel não dispõe de quarto com banheiro individual, todos os quartos são com banheiro compartilhado. Isso é bastante desconfortável, de modo que o hotel deveria avisar logo, na- tes da confirmação da reserva, que o banheiro é compartilhado. Outro fato que me desagradou bastante foi o de eu ter solicitado ao Hotel a fatura do que havia pago e eles disseram que me mandariam por E-mail. Só que eu até agora ainda não recebi esse E-mail. Existe a possibilidade de vocês pressionarem para que cumpram com sua obrigação.

Le quartier est très joli et tranquille. En revanche, le bnb était sale en particulier la salle de bains (moisissures, cheveux, poils et insectes morts dans la douche). Attention, il faut convenir d'un rendez-vous avant l'arrivée (entre 15h et 18h). Nous avons attendu une heure.

Modest place for short stay-over
The premise is at 20-30 minute walk from Young's Street (city center), but you can take a bus of course. The premise is a bit difficult to find and there aren't much dining option nearby, except a pizza shop and Harvey's. The facilities is modest and acceptable for over-night stay, except that it would be a bit noisy at night (whenever there is police vehicles passing-by) or in the morning at rush hours, because it is located next to main roads.
