• George (1/5): - Bed bugs everywhere and unclean. No doors have locks on and no locker
• Sakhawat (8/5): 6 - Location is very Good Attitude
• Richard (7/5): -
• Henrik (1/5): Bedbugs - The guy that happened to be around when I arrived was chill. The dorm is for 25-30 people and the bed was filled with bedbugs. One toilet for this amount of people is a problem, and the showers smell like mold.

• Mohamed Ali Melouk (10/5): -
• Nathaniel Ace (1/5): Jail cells are better - The fact I was counting down the hours until I get out of this place There was bed bugs in beds and on the walls, the place looked like a state, and the manager lied when I asked to change bed because mine bed bugs, he said it wasn’t possible to change beds as there was one already taken, fast forward to that night at 2 am, that bed that not been taken, there is something dodgy about this place and now I’ll do whatever I can to bring it down. There is also a Facebook post from a woman complaining about the same thing
• Arta (1/5): Just don’t stay - - I never walked away from property, this is most horrible scenery that I ever saw, everything is wrong with that place. There’s no curtains, one large room with around 30 beds, looks crepey, like crime scene. Just for another people door are at left side it’s wodden small door, no number and just a step up. Also entire building stinks.
• yakov (1/5): Bed bugs - Bed bugs Bed bugs

• Georgi (1/5): - Nothing. Bedbugs.
• Alexander (4/5): - Персонал приветливый. Отличное местоположение. Воды горячей не было за все 5 дней. Армия клопов. Мой сосед самостоятельно травил клопов. Клопам все равно а я чувствовал себя отравленым.Когда я выехал с хостеля почуствовал себя счастливым. Ноги моей там больше не будет.
• Bushtarenko (1/5): - Все ужасно Клопы в кроватят полностью покусали Я в больницу попал ни когда туда не едте

• Ana (1/5): To avoid - The guy that was cleaning when I arrived was friendly. I've stayed the night of the 22nd September. The day after I started to feel some bites of insects ( no mosquito), since then my arms, legs and back are covered by bites and are hitching. That night I saw one bug on the courtins of the bed, that's the reason I relate the bites with the hostel. Having one shower for all the guests doesn't make it easy, although when I arrived, there was one guy cleaning ( very friendly by the way). The bedroom was surprisedly quiet, meaning that guest were silent, until some people started to burp in the dormitory. The part that I didn't enjoy ( apart from bugs and burps) was that people were smoking inside the facilities, in a window. That will make the corridor on the way to the toilet smell like tobacco. I highly recommend to avoid this place. Even with that low price It's not worth it. There's one hostel near the castle that is clean and quiet (I couldn't stay that evening because was fully booked)
• Jarmila (1/5): - Katastrofa,špína, praskla voda..na záchod leda v holinkach..Slouží jako ubytovna pro dělníky cestovatelům nedoporucuji Katastrofa,mělo by se to zavřít..Špína, prach,nefunkční zásuvky, nedal se nabít mobil..špinavá kuchyň lepší spát venku
• Anna (5/5): - Цена, расположение - отличные. Наверху есть кухня. Мне дали чистую простынь, по запросу - благодарю. Нужно убрать получше, грязновато. Очень много людей, шумно ночью, и душно.
• M.Nawar (4/5): -
• Sameh El-Sawy (1/5): The worst Hostel ever - Didn't like anything at all Staff is not professional Management not supportive Overlapping in reservation Internet not stable Toilet is not well clean Bed are so so un clean...my body was itching because of small bed bugs The dormitory has 2 up normal guys " one drunk and the other one is crazy"
• Philip (7/5): -
• AILANE (1/5): I was bitten by bedbugs that ruined my trip to Cyprus They did not offer me any help I suffered -

• Laura (10/5): - For the price truly amazing! I was not expecting fabulous experience as when in hostel I am mostly being outside. The bed was comfortable. I would manage to put men into half a room and girl into half a room. Cause of snoring
• ELTAYEB FAROUK (3/5): -
• Nuti (1/5): Horrible experience. Booking.com doesn’t help with refund at all. I have photos of my body full of bites - Nothing. Horrible place. Dirty. Dark. Bed full of bes bugs 🐜. I couldn’t sleep there. After 2 hours in bed, I woke up and my body was full of bites. I had to spend the night in the street - 6 hours - because my bus was the following morning. I have asked a refund and the are pulling my legs after 2 weeks, still waiting for.
• martinez gonzalez (1/5): - The more disgusting hostel I never been .. stay away from this place .. not even air condition Disgusting place
• Nesrine (2/5): - Le personnel est sympathique Il y a des punaises de lit, j'ai été piquer partout
• El Haddad (1/5): - This hostel should be closed immediately by the ministry of Health. The bed bugs are filling the rooms. We request from Booking.com to remove it immediately from their website.

• Rida1997 (1/5): - Rien du tout Hostel plein d'insectes, trop sale, trop bruyant.
• Jakub Laurin (3/5): Budget-friendly but NOT very comfortable - The air conditioning was working, but it was still very hot on the upper beds. Flexible check-in, you can come anytime. For the price, the quality was acceptable. The bathroom and toilet were in poor condition – dirty, not cleaned, and extremely hot. The accommodation was poorly marked (the entrance is easy to find but finding the right door inside the hostel is quite tricky). It’s a hostel, so I strongly recommend bringing a lock for your luggage.
• Silva (4/5): - Personalet var høflig. Bedbugs
• Merlyn (7/5): -
• Sharmila (1/5): Very horrific - Nothing - They don’t have reception no Safety They should close that hostel till they get to do everything proper. I called the police You can understand It’s highly unusual to stay in such hostels I paid for 7 days I vacated on the first night itself and bad experience so I cancelled my trip and went home immediately.., my flight return was wasted Accomodation stay was wasted Because it was horrendous Every thing No security No one takes responsibility there No one is available for help They should close such hostels Immediately
• BLECON BERRIER (1/5): Bed bugs and zero amenities is the recipe for the worst hostel I've stayed at - Location OK as it's close from the bus station to the airport and to go to other cities in Cyprus BED BUGS !!! I came home with an entire bed bug infestation which was coming from this hostel, one of the dirtiest I have been in my whole life. Amenities are very poor (bed light wasn't working, only 1 shower for the entire hostel) and zero effort on the beds (plastic wrapping on the mattress under the sheets, zero privacy with your neighbour or the one below/above). Adding to this, check in was very complicated as I was only given the code to the second door. I waited a long time outside before a worker from the building came out and gave me the street door code. No reception and I didn't receive the bed number beforehand by email or whatsoever. A real real shame. I usually am lenient with hostels as I understand they are for travellers on the rough and in no way was I paying for a 5 stars hotel, but this one is really a health hazard and should be avoided at all cost, even for one night. And don't let the "100 m from the beach" selling point fool you, this Finikoudes "beach" is very dirty as well (cigarette butts and beer cans everywhere) with no sand. You sit on a rock hard ground dirt like in the middle of a dumpster.

• Peter (10/5): -
• Tangirkyz (10/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff!
• Ali (1/5): - I can say that the bathroom was in a better condition than the room itself it's really like migrants and refugees dormitory. very sketchy and tons of beds in the same room The smell is awful It seems like people have been living there for months.
• Chris_Michalina (10/5): -
• quentin (1/5): - La disponibilité Les lits grattent, c’est vétuste…
• Emile (2/5): - Localisation Propreté
• Badua (6/5): -
• Mari257 (1/5): - Hostel was dissapoint , I expected less beds in the share room (more than 20 beds+ another rooms) for one shower and two toillets. No reception, only robot/automat sending messages. The terase has so big potential to be comfortable and place to stay (just some plastic grass, xmas lights, small tables and chairs/seat cushion, flowers) but it's not. One plus is close beach and on the corner bus stop (from/to airport). At least I spent night on terase, too hot in the share room and noisy. If this was available towel, no thanks.
• Dorota (10/5): -
• Madeleine (1/5): Do not stay here! - location Everything! Stay away. It is dirty, the bathrooms have 1 toilet for the whole hotel with no lock (male and female shared - no lock). Very dirty. Staff was smoking inside just next to the shared hostel room, causing the hallway to fill with cigarette smoke. I stayed for only 1 hour before I left. I have been in hostels all over the world and have never had to leave before like this. The toilet was leaking and got mysterious liquid all over my socks. It was gross.
• Chris_Michalina (10/5): -
• Петрова (10/5): Рекомендую. - Расположение, близко к морю. Чистенько, персонал уважительный. Соотношение цена - качество. Рекомендую. Да в общем, все было достойно. Только матрацы новенькие и были обтянуты клеенкой и шуршали. Но снимать их не стоит.
• Brandon (1/5): Mangé par des insectes - J’ai été piqué a plus de 50 reprises par des PUNAISES DE LIT, nous sommes 3 jours plus tard, je suis toujours dans un sale état et mes vacances sont fichu. Je n’ai même pas été remboursé
• Talia (1/5): - Location Bed bugs, stained curtains, inadequate bedding and pillow
• Iva (1/5): - The receptionist was genuinely kind and helpful—but even his politeness couldn’t make up for the nightmare conditions. The Worst Hostel I’ve Ever Stayed In!⚠️ If you value cleanliness, personal space, or basic comfort, avoid this hostel in Cyprus at all costs! My experience was so bad. 🚫 Disgusting Filth Everywhere– Sticky floors, dusty corners, and an overall feeling of neglect. The bathroom looked like it hadn’t been properly cleaned in weeks. 🛏️ Paper-Thin "Beds" Wrapped in Plastic– The mattresses were covered in crinkly foil (why?!), making every move sound like a chip bag being crumpled. Zero comfort. 😳 No Privacy – Literally Sleeping Shoulder-to-Shoulder– The beds were crammed side by side, with just a flimsy sheet separating you from a stranger. One night, I even felt the person next to me *accidentally touch me* while turning over—horrifying! 🤬 No Respect for Guests’ Comfort– It felt more like a storage room with beds than a place meant for humans. Final Verdict: 1/10 – Never Again! Save yourself the misery and pay a little extra for a decent place. This hostel has no business hosting people. P.S. If you enjoy sleeping in what feels like a crowded, sweaty warehouse with zero dignity… this is your spot. Otherwise, RUN.🏃‍♀️💨
• Iva (1/5): Dishonest and Unprofessional Experience - Nothing This was by far the worst hostel I have ever encountered, not just because of the poor conditions, but due to their complete lack of customer service and transparency. After checking out, I simply needed a place to leave my backpack for five hours before my flight. I explicitly stated I did not require a bed, just a small storage space, and even offered to pay extra for this service. The staff refused, claiming they had another guest arriving. This made no sense since I wasn't asking for a sleeping spot – just a corner to temporarily place my bag. When I asked if I could pay for an additional night just to secure storage space, they told me there were no available beds. However, a quick check on Booking.com showed at least 10 free beds in the hostel at that time. Instead of accommodating a simple request, they tried redirecting me to their twice more expensive their hotel. Beyond this dishonest behavior, the hostel itself was in poor condition – dirty, cramped, and far below standard for what should be a European budget accommodation. The only decent aspect was the polite receptionist, but even his professionalism couldn't compensate for the overall terrible experience. I strongly advise against staying here. The management appears more interested in squeezing extra money from guests than providing basic services or maintaining proper facilities. There are far better budget options available.
• Gilad (4/5): Place to rest for some hours - The Location was great. The bed was quite comfy. I had a small locker with a key. The shower was nice (no hot water clearly, but it was so hot outside that I didn’t care). It was a nice place to place my had for a few hours in a layover between flights, but I wouldn’t stay for more than one night, sleeping is questionable, there so many beds in one room. And the price is really cheap, so you can’t complain too much :) It was really easy to get by bus from the airport. It was really unclear where are the doorms. The entrance door was hidden. One couple that was suppose to have a private room didn’t get it because of double booking. The beds do so much noise. Fits only for young people, not couples or families.

• Chris_Michalina (10/5): 100 meters from the bay - Απόλυτα βολικό και 100 μόλις μέτρα από την παραλία των φοινικουδων. Με βόλεψε αφάνταστα για τον σκοπό μου. Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα.

• Ahmed Elsayed Ali (1/5): اسوأ تجربة ممكن تحدث - المكان فقط لا يوجد شخص لاستقبالك وصعوبة التواصل وسوء المعاملة , المكان مليئ بالحشرات والاوبئة وحقيقي انصحك بمراجعة نفسك قبل زيارة هذا المكان السيء . بعد مغادرتي اكتشفت ان جلدي تأثر من الحشرات
• Moshiko (5/5): מזעזע - רק המיקום טוב הכל מסריח השירותים במקלחת המיטות מלאות בג׳וקים קרציות מיטה ומלא דם על הקירות מזרונים עם ניילון כל הזמן זזים יש רעש

Terrible place, doesn't respect the status of booking like many other places like this that are on the platform on BookingA terrible place, doesn't respect the status of Booking like many other places like this that are on the platform in Booking.
• Abdul Rahman (1/5): Bad experience - The location isn’t bad So unclean, it was very difficult to find my bed, also not safe as the main door was open the entire night.
• Kamila (1/5): This place is a total dump. - I slept in over 200 bits because I love traveling but I have never seen such a mess anywhere. The worst hostel I have ever been to. Mattresses covered in plastic packaging, squeak with every move and there are 12 people in the room. There is nothing to cover yourself with. There is only a sheet and a pillow but they are not changed after the previous person. For three rooms of 12 people there is - attention - one bathroom with one shower. So you have to wait for about 30 people to take a shower before you. a hotel for black men slurs working in Larnaca and not for travelers
