I shouldn't be picky when staying in a hostel. After all, if you spend this little money in Europe, you should accept everything. I just compared it with other similarly priced hostels in Europe.
1 Every hostel has its own culture. Some put a lot of books in the public area and everyone reads quietly. This one has a wine culture. I don't think it's bad. It's good for friends who love drinking, but it's not suitable for people like me who like quietness.
2 The bar is on the first floor and the check-in is right at the bar front desk. It's very noisy every night until very late. I met a drunk roommate who went to drink at a certain time and came back late at night.
3 The overall lighting of this hostel is dim, the facilities are very old, and the bathroom has a smell. I have lived in bunk beds before. This one is the upper, middle and lower bunk. The bed space is very cramped. I am 168 cm tall and can't sit up straight. If I raise my head a little, I will bump into it. The room is also dim, the lighting is very poor, and the ventilation is also poor. The room was also very cold when I came in March. The door lock in the bathroom is also broken, and it is inconvenient to live together and take a shower. As soon as I entered the room, I felt very depressed and dull. There was no curtain to block the view, and the door was right in front of my bed. It was still inconvenient to live in a mixed room without a curtain. The eight-person room I stayed in was brighter than the six-person room here.
4 The USB power supply was broken and could not be used, and the other power supplies were also in poor contact. I had no choice but to dig out a bunch of messy power sockets under the bed to use. Wi-Fi was sometimes available, and even if it was available, it was very weak.
5 I tried not to bother the staff as I only paid a few bucks. I knew very well that I should not be picky about the accommodation I booked for such a small amount of money. But I have stayed in hostels in Paris and Spain and they are all good. I will definitely not come to this one again. It was too noisy, too noisy, too noisy. It made people very anxious and in a bad mood, which also affected the next day's itinerary. It was too depressing to stay there.
