Hostel experience
It was ok. I had (unknowingly) chosen a room of 12, and it turned out that each room was a three-bed bunk, with me being at the bottom bunk. It was horrible. I couldn’t even sit on my bed. In my opinion, any bunk more than 2 should be banned. While not unique to here, I still find it baffling that hostels have dorm rooms and even bathrooms as mixed. So much awkward interactions with ladies which is quite weird and uncomfortable. Other than that, everything was ok.

Great facilities and location but with more popular hostels comes less tailored service. Some organised activities but lacked a friendly family quality. Still a great stay. 8/10 would recommend.
