"I've stayed in many hostels. This was the only unpleasant one. Pics belied the reality"

1.0

guy behind the counter was courteous , the wi-fi was really stable and the location very handy

I can not believe this place hasn't been closed down. Absolutely shameful considering the amount of people who have travelled from another country and find this unhygienic and inadequate place to stay.

"Niet aan te raden"

3.0

Het personeel was vriendelijk. De locatie was fijn, dichtbij het cbd

Het bed was smerig, er zaten bloedvlekken op de stoel, de douches waren niet helemaal dicht dus mensen konden gewoon naar binnen kijken. De keuken was heel smerig, overal waren vliegjes, niemand waste z'n spullen af.

"À fuir !!"

Wifi, réceptionnistes

Cet établissement devrait être fermé. Si vous ne voulez pas retrouver des cafards ou des moucherons dans votre nourriture, ni risquer de dormir dans une chambre infestée de punaises de lit, passez votre chemin. La cuisine est dans un état déplorable, l'ascenseur dégage une forte odeur d'urine et, comme cela a déjà été signalé à de très nombreuses reprises dans les avis Google, il y a des punaises de lit. Malheureusement, je n'avais pas consulté ces avis avant de réserver, car Booking ne met pas toujours tout en évidence. Fenêtre cassée et bloquée (Ouverte) impossible de fermer (signaler à la réception). Trop de bruit, impossible de dormir. Concernant les équipements, l'eau chaude fonctionne une fois sur deux : préparez-vous à prendre des douches froides. Face à tous ces problèmes, nous avons demandé un geste commercial. Le personnel nous a assuré que les dernières nuits nous seraient remboursées puisque nous avons quitté l'établissement plus tôt. À ce jour, nous n'avons rien reçu. Je tiens toutefois à souligner que les réceptionnistes ont été aimables et ont fait de leur mieux pour nous aider face à cette situation. Mon avis négatif ne les concerne pas. En revanche, je trouve que la direction n'a pas été correcte dans sa gestion du problème ni dans le suivi des engagements qui nous avaient été annoncés. De plus, l'établissement ne semble pas respecter les procédures habituelles en cas de présence de punaises de lit, notamment en matière d'information et de prise en charge des clients concernés. En résumé : fuyez cet endroit.
