"Overall, my stay was very good. I met a lot of lovely people, and the common area was excellent, with a kitchen and fridge available for everyone to use – a great option if you're on a budget. There are also washing machines and dryers, which are slightly cheaper than what you'd find outside. Each room has its own bathroom, which was quite clean, but the public bathrooms were a bit concerning.
Regarding the room, on the first night, perhaps because I was on the top bunk with no netting, and I'm prone to insect bites, I got a 'mosquito gift package' – about 20-30 bites all over my body. I was so itchy I couldn't sleep. Although I'm not sure if it was mosquitoes or other insects, my first night's experience was really not good. After I mentioned it to the front desk staff, they checked for bed bugs, sprayed mosquito repellent in the room, and moved me to another bed. Things improved afterward, though that might also be because I bought my own mosquito repellent and anti-itch cream.
On a positive note, the supermarket downstairs is excellent for buying dinner ingredients, and the water sold there is very cheap. You can also find mosquito repellent and anti-itch cream there; I bought them for 10+20€, just for your reference, and the anti-itch cream was super effective!
If you're prepared for mosquitoes, I think this is a really great place to stay. It's very close to both the subway and bus stops, making it incredibly convenient to get to all the popular attractions, and the area feels very safe."
