    The shower tap was broken, so the water would go from very hot to very cold and vice versa in the middle of the shower; the room was hot even with the fan they provided; and as they only have 1 toilet, I recommend you waking up a bit earlier if you have an appointment, because if someone is using it, you’ll be late.

    The location was GREAT, located near the train/bus stations from/to the airport and you can go everywhere in the city within minutes, especially if you rent a electric scooter. The private room was spacious and bright, the building has a lift and there’s a lot of restaurants/stores/laundry etc around the hostel.

    Do Not stay at the accommodation. When we arrived he walked us about 1km away from the address to another accommodation, where it was about 8 stories and we were the only people staying in the whole place. It is unsafe and looks like an abandoned basement. Doors were locked shut with chains and bricks, there was holes in the walls. The owner came bashing on our door at 1am asking for tax money, when we told him we would sort it out in the morning he began to help himself into our room with his keys. Myself and my 3 friends have never been so scared. Do not stay here!

    If I am being very particular the water pressure when the shower is hot is minimal so you have to pick between heat and water pressure. There was also no soap in the dispenser when we were there - good thing we had Our own. However these weren’t huge issues on our end and we still enjoyed our stay

    The room was private and the building was really cool, good location and amenities. The host was great and very accommodating. The view from the window is beautiful and I would definitely recommend this property

    Lower your expectations and you'll be fine. Bathroom - no window, sewage stinks so we had to keep closed the door all the time, light too dim so good luck with showering ( I needed to keep shower door open to have any light) Room - essentially it needs renovating, clean as it could be Balcony - shared with other room, not for guests, containers and other stuff there

    If your budget is low and you're just few days here you'll manage it.

    The entrance to the building is not specially marked and it is necessary to find it on the intercom in order to make sure that you are at the right address. The toilets were very dirty, there were someone's underpants in one of the shower cubicles. The window in our room could not be opened and the light was flashing and buzzing.

    very dirty hostel, the walls are miserable, to get access to the hostel you have to call ahead, it's noisy without taking into account an hour of sleep, and the hostel is basically an apartment.

    The fact that is near to the centre.

    very difficult to find. It’s located in an apartment building at a dead end of a street, no signage you have to look for “two ducks hostel” on the apartment building buzzer list/registry that’s posted next to the sort. the hostel is located on the top floor with no AC which means all the hot air concentrated in your room. The rooms were okay, they did provide fans but in late august they were just blowing hot air at us. we only got 3 hours of sleep from the hat. the balcony was shared without a lock. our door lock was quite finicky as there was a screw missing. the shared showers and bathrooms were were okay a little old and a little dirty but they got the job done.

    the staff member was very nice

    It’s not a hostel. it’s apartment and they rent rooms (small rooms). It doesn’t have kitchen. They changed the place when we arrived. we had to walk in the streets in the middle of the night.
