City View Lucka Hostel

The view was nice once we finally found the place, and our room had its own bathroom. The door locked properly and we didn’t see any bugs. But there were other people in separate rooms beyond our private space, and no towels were provided, so we couldn’t shower. I wouldn’t book again. If you’re desperate enough to stay, get your own apartment and bathroom, and bring towels.

The location is the one real highlight, with great views. The room itself was reasonably clean, but it’s part of an apartment shared with other guests, and there’s only one bathroom and toilet. There’s no front desk either, since everything is handled online. We checked carefully and didn’t find bed bugs. The mattress was so bad I could feel the wooden bed frame, and there were no towels. It’s very cheap, but I’d look elsewhere unless you’re staying one night, have a private room, bring your own towel, and don’t mind sleeping without a proper mattress.

This place felt like a health hazard. Almost every surface was dirty and sticky, there was mold in the showers and common areas, and some light fixtures were missing or coming loose from the wall. The beds hadn’t been properly cleaned before we arrived, and there was grime in several colors underneath them. The staff weren’t helpful and the directions were confusing. I can only describe the experience as horrible.

We were dreading our arrival after reading the reviews, but the room turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The place was clean, and following the directions carefully made it easy to find the building, key, and room. Even with people staying in the neighboring rooms, it was quiet. There was no towel, and the room felt humid and hot. The blanket was thin, and the pillow had an old cover. In the bathroom, the sink was tiny and filled up fast, while the toilet flush seemed partly broken, though it still worked.
