We were meant to stay at Boomerang for 2 nights, however, the hostel was disgusting!!! The messiest hostel i have been to yet. There was god knows what smeared up the walls, and the brown mattresses left a lot to be desired. Reception closes between 12pm - 4pm which is really unhelpful. The number on the door said ring in...

We walked to the hostel in scorching heat only to find out that the double rooms were back at the train station 15min walk- where we started! so we walked... More

Literally everyone in... More
