Clean on the surfaced, but doesn’t take long to see the grim build up in places like the skirting boards, the odd hair, and the shared bathroom space I’m assuming doesn’t get professional clean very often - guests could tidy up after themselves but not all guests are that polite.
Cause it is set up as: privates rooms per floor, and then everyone on that floor shares one bathroom. In theory fine. But because there isn’t a shared social space as well (the ‘kitchen’ exists but it hard to use unless you have your own plates, bowls, etc)
- it was just kinda icky.
No sound proofing.
And your experience will vary depending on the other guests on your floor. So for me, that was messy, bathrooms wheee the door always got knocked and the handle jiggled (it’s clearly locked with someone running water inside).
But no social break through to engage with these people I’m neighbouring and sharing with.
It’s not like others hostels. It just misses the mark for me.
Rooms are secured and warm.
No shared shampoo/conditioner in bathroom, so bring all that yourself.
Private room does have a mini fridge and small desk though which is helpful
