A nice hostel ”

Matchbox is a nice hostel. It is sweet with the small ‘rooms’ which make you feel it is a room. Unfortunately we were there with some not very clean guests so the bathroom and especially the toilet wasn’t very clean. This is very disgusting. But not the fault of the accommodation. The area where matchbox is located is good, you can walk some minutes to the metro or sky train or just walk a while. On one morning we got woken up by the staff because she wanted to know if we want to have clean our bed. This was very strange because we were asleep and she touched my feet and shaked it to wake me up. This is a no go!
