expedia incorrectly had check in listed at 2:30pm when it was actually scheduled for 3pm. they did not have the room ready for check in at 3pm they kept us waiting until 3:35pm. very disappointing check in experience. there was an awkward step up to get into the washroom and there was a broken sill in the washrrom. other than that the room was quite new with a good view of the street.

The manager was so rude from the beginning when they ask me for mi ID. The room looks nice but then when you start to move stuff or use something you can notice is dirty and they have bed bugs everywhere

Great except phone attack

Posted 14 Jul 2024 on Hotels
Would be 5 stars except my phone was attacked 4 times over the network. Each attack required a hard reset to unlock the phone again. This is a network issue with their network. Stay in airplane mode while at the hostel. If the attack had succeeded I would have lost my phone and bank accounts.

Degraded area not far from Midi station

Posted 2 Jul 2024 on Hotels
The property is in quite a degraded area of the city, but fair price and close to Midi railway station. The room was small and cramped but functional.

Awkward room access

Posted 2 Jul 2024 on Hotels
On this occasion (the second of two stays in ten days), we were allocated a room at the top of the first flight of stairs. It might best be described as awkward, at worst a death trap. There were two steps down into the room immediately upon opening the door, and could easily have fallen while finding the light switch.

Very unsafe area crowds of people hanging around outside hostel @ 3am. No locks in room at all despite having a door leading onto street with no lock. Would not return! Stayed in hostel for 1 and a half hours before needing to leave as could not live in these conditions. Only good point was receptionist was lovely.

So bad I didn’t stay for longer than 12 hours and had booked 2 nights Steep stairs and no lift. Reception is in different part of building to accommodation. So have to leave reception and go out of building and around corner. No lift. No hot water in bathroom and no toilet paper. Loud music playing in room all night, loud people screaming outside door all night. Bad smell that lingers. Not recommended.
