Hostelz.com Guest Reviews

Nice building squandered by inept staff and managers Upon arriving at the hostel I was excited for a nice stay. But, I was soon rewarded with a very unrelaxing atmosphere, sterile decorations, and rooms packed with noisy kids. There is no kitchen to cook in (I thought kitchens were standard in hostels), no comfortable places to relax, and not a whole lot to do. Somehow, stayokay managed to take a beautiful building with a lot of potential for a unique hosteling experience and turn it into an institutionalized, uncomfortable, merely functional stay. — Faron , USA (2009-10-13)
