The one good thing about this hostel is that it is centrally located in the city. They fail to mention that they have a single toilet and 3 showers for each gender in the hostel. The showers and bathroom were extremely dirty, had various bugs crawling around them, and always smelled disgusting. The hotel manager also fails to mention that they turn the air conditioning on at night and prohibit you from opening the window, leaving you in a hot room with 7 other people. Avoid this place.

Staff was friendly. But because the check-in system was down, we waited for over an hour to get into our rooms. Location is great. And that's it. Private room was worn down, air conditioning was leaking (not funny to sleep with that sound every 30min), shower worked well but did almost fall off, you can hear the outside noise (people, traffic) very clearly. At least, it was as clean as possible in this torn down room. There would be a lot of work for the owner to renovate it, but to me it doesn't seem to be planned. So better look for another accomodation.

The hostel is well located, the lady at the front desk was very nice and clearly doing the best she could. But that is about it. The place looks and smells old and dirty. The bathroom in my floor had no lock and the shower didn't work, which means I had to go up a flight of stairs every time I needed something. As I opened my locker I found a dirty pair of socks. The beds had no privacy shade and the bedroom had no curtain so unless you are fine sleeping with the sun on your face, bring a pair of blindfolds. I also had travel issues and when I called the hotel to give them a heads up I apparently reached the owner who was very unhelpful and rude.

auberge à éviter

Auberge qui a besoin d'un sacré rafraichissement et d'une inspection sanitaire. les photos sur le site ne sont pas le reflet de la réalité - pas de piscine comme mentionné, mais bon ce n'est pas le plus grave; les sanitaires sont dans un états d'insalubrité; les chambres privés s'en sortent un peu mieux- petit déjeuner passable (pas de thé, de la tisane) (le personnel manipule le jambon et fromage avec les mains sans prendre de gants) - le seul point positif de cette auberge est sa situation

TOPLOCATIE ! De accomodatie is verouderd en er wordt niet meer in geinvesteerd. Wij zochten enkel een propere slaapplaats voor 2 nachten, met eigen douche/toilet, op een goeie ligging. Dus voor ons was dit ideaal. Als een beetje roest, loskomend behangpapier, ..... jou niet stoort, als je verder geen luxe wil, dan is dit goed. Er staat wel vermeld dat ontbijt inbegrepen is, maar ontbijt is er niet. Enkel een koffiemachine , die je onbeperkt kan gebruiken. Maar voor ons maakte de toplocatie alles goed !

The Golden Tram is in a fabulous location and the highlight is the on-site lift. However, the building, bedrooms, bathrooms etc are in serious need of renovation. I have stayed in far worse but it just feels neglected. The location is central which is a plus, but the negative is it's noisy 24/7

Localização e funcionários são o ponto forte. Cama desconfortável, dava pra sentir a mola, banheiro ruim. Café-da-manhã incluso e era ok, pelo valor que se paga na diária, foi um ponto positivo. Chuveiro usei o do quarto privativo da minha amiga, então não sei como é o compartilhado. O quarto dela era muito pequeno. O banheiro tinha um tamanho pequeno, porém era ok, mas era muito antigo e não estava em perfeito estado, a pia não descia a água com rapidez.

Location was great, the property is in the middle of downtown. Staff was just ok not super friendly/helpful nor terrible. Breakfast is ok as well. Hostel facilities (showers, toilets) need a serious upgrade, all is very old in terrible shape, badly maintained, not enough light and ventilation. Room was just OK, the bed was ok, could use a curtain for privacy and little shelf to put personal staff (watch, phone charger, etc,).
