Belford Hostel

The hotel and staff are great. It's a 10-minute walk from shops and restaurants. The room was secure, allowing us to leave our belongings without concern. The only downside was the bathroom; we wanted a private one accessible in the evening without going outside, but our room's bathroom was outside and shared with others.

這是一家非常有趣的酒店，由教堂改建而成，服務人員很好，友善而周到。因為是歷史建築沒辦法改建，房間還是比較大，有集體廚房，電影室，單間少，因此用公用浴室洗漱還是比較方便。感受獨特氛圍還是很有意思。

I strongly advise against booking this hotel if you value basic customer service and fair treatment. I attempted to make a reservation through Agoda, and the app initially rejected it. Since the booking didn’t go through, I tried again using a different card, and this time it was successful. However, to my surprise, both reservations had actually been processed, leaving me with two bookings instead of one. I have now spent 96 hours trying to resolve this issue, sending emails and making phone calls to both Agoda and the hotel. Neither has offered a solution, and worse yet, Belfors Hostel has refused to allow Agoda to process a refund, despite the fact that the duplicate reservation was due to a system error. A hotel that caters to international travelers should, at the very least, have decent customer service and a willingness to help guests when issues arise. Instead, this place has demonstrated a complete lack of professionalism, zero accountability, and no respect for tourists. If they are this unhelpful before you even arrive, I can only imagine the kind of service you’ll get during your stay. There are plenty of other hotels that will treat you with respect and assist you if any problems occur. This is not one of them. Avoid it.

We stayed at Belford Hostel in a private room (No. 7), and unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. The room was not clearly cleaned—there were leftovers from past guests behind the nightstand, which was pretty off-putting. The cleanliness overall was poor, with noticeable dust and a general lack of attention to detail. To make matters worse, the hostel's garbage deposit was right outside our door, which added to the unpleasant atmosphere. The walls in the room were incredibly thin, and we could hear every noise from the hallway and other rooms, making it difficult to sleep peacefully. Additionally, at check-in, they pushed (and almost insisted) that we pay for a towel, even though there were towels already provided in the room. This felt unnecessary and a bit of a scam. Overall, we wouldn’t recommend this hostel unless they address these issues with cleanliness, noise levels, and customer service.

Decent for a hostel. We had a private room, clean and the bathroom and toilet facilities seemed to be regularly cleaned etc. One of the better hostels I've ever been in. We were able to easily walk to many attractions and all over the city from here, so that was great too!

Two things need to be remembered - its a very old building, and its a budget hostel. Knowing that, I was pleasantly surprised at my stay. Private room with an old-fashioned key made the history of the place that little bit more real. The staff where friendly and helpful. The only downside is that it is a little out of the way from most tourist attractions - 2-3km walk to most attractions.
