Great location. Great restaurant with great food. We were located on the third floor. The hostel only has stairs so be prepared to walk up 100-200 steps to get to your room every time you come and go. It’s fairly tough when you are carrying your luggage or groceries.

They need to update the pictures they have on there website, we rented the suite and it was very dirty and difficult to get to, they didn’t even offer to help us take the suitcase through all the 340 stairs steps to get to the suite, it’s very old and the a/c was not working right, also some how someone went inside our room, when we were getting to the room a guy was coming out. They try to blame us that we had left the door open. And that was not true. Also the restrooms smell really bad. I will definitely will never stay in that nasty old place.
