Hell on Earth (The Hostel Edition) 1 star is too kind as this place deserves a rating in the negatives. This is, without question, the worst hostel experience I have ever had while on holiday in Europe. I wish to God I would have found reviews of this place before deciding to stay in this toilet. For starters, the staff was rude, dodgy, and far too interested in the injection of hard drugs to be bothered by the needs of guests. We stayed in room #8 after climbing a staircase designed for Olympic athletes that creaked like it was about to collapse at any second. The rooms themselves were utterly disgusting. dark carpet riddled with assorted stains, a bathroom that was flooded with piss, beds that were failing apart, wool sheets that had taken on a "crusty" texture, and a rank smell that makes me upset to my stomach to even think about. The showers made this odd (and loud) ping and "gurgle" sound that never seemed to stop and served as a warning to all those who would dare use it. I had been on the road three days and after I turned the handle on the shower a dark an semi-liquid substance began to slowly ooze out. I am not sure what that was but it sure as hell was not water. Even more comical (although it was not at the time) was the assorted graffiti warning people to get out now. Trust me and heed the advice, get your arse out of here before its too late. Unless you are looking to ruin your holiday DO NOT STAY HERE. — Anonymous , Australia (2011-03-03) HIDEOUS This is the most unbelievably horrible dump you can imagine. Filthy floors, walls, bathroom. Ridiculous, dangerous stairs. Would have been easier to climb a rope to our room. We mistakenly reserved an 8-bed room instead of a 4-bed room. They made us pay for all 8 beds. Woke up with 4 roommates each night, but we were only refunded 40 euros. Rude, unhelpful staff. — Nan , USA (2010-09-06) It was like faulty towers without the comedy this place is the most awful place i have ever stayed in. there was graffiti on the wall out of the two rooms we looked at. this one was the best -- the other had no window. there was a hole were the window was. though the TV was not working. it smells to high heaven or hell. even the doors didnt lock or unlock properly. the door handle was almost falling out. the stairs are so steep i actually thought it was built by Paula Radcliffe. and you would probably die from whiplash if there was a fire. we were in room #9. #8 had no window and the carpet was so disgusting i thought about buying asbestos socks just to walk around. — Andrew Booton , British/England (2008-08-13) Can it be as bad as all the reviews say? Yes it can. After a weekend stay there I can tick a box next to every bad thing that has been written. Two bits of graffiti stand out. Room 1: "Your silly for trying to sleep in here." Room 5: "Abandon all hope ye who enter here." Enjoy your stay. (It's an experience.) — Rolo (2006-10-31) This was the most disgusting place i have ever been in. It was so bad we checked out and went and stayed somewhere else. The room smelt, the carpet was stained, the sheets had holes, there was graffiti on the inside of the rooms and urine on a wall. — Brooke (2006-09-10) This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed. The room and toilet are very dirty. I highly suspect that they don't even wash the sheet and blanket. The toilet is smelly, the soap used by the former lodger is left in it, and the floor is extremely dirty. The stairs is almost vertical and narrow, which is very inconvenient to us (with heavy backpack). The breakfast is awful, and even the cups and spoons are dirty. Besides, it is very noisy at night. You can hear some drunk people fighting or the footsteps from the upstairs almost all night long. And, the room is very cold. By the way, it is not only the most expensive but also the most horrible hotel to stay on my trip. — Evelyn (2006-05-31) This is the biggest dump you will ever stay in. I drank constantly for 48 hours so I didn't have to go back to it. The place was totally minging [unpleasant]; I wouldn't even let my dog stay there. There were footprints all over the bed linen. It's really bad. A good location if you're gay, but you will regret it if you stay here. It's bad. — Jason (2005-09-18)
