We stayed in this hotel for the night. Friendly, friendly staff. A clean bed, a tidy room is guaranteed. Towels, hair dryer are all in the room. Excellent breakfast in the morning. Good location in the center of Lviv.

I was in Lviv for the New Year holidays. Judging by the description and photo, I decided to opt for a place in a 4-bed Leohostel room. I booked on the hostel's website and, according to their data, bought the penultimate place.
Arriving in Lviv, I found the hostel with difficulty, although later it turned out that it was not very far from the city center.
Upon entering the reception, I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and order, but it turned out that it was not a hostel, but a hotel. The hostel was located in a nearby building.
On the ground floor, bare brick walls and a hole in front of the threshold were waiting for me (heating pipes were being changed).
After going to the second floor (there are only 8 rooms), I got into a Soviet-style recreation center (creaky wooden parquet "herringbone" with spots of unknown origin, massive doors that look more like closet doors). When asked to show the shower and toilet, the hotel employee replied that: "they have it," but did not show exactly where.
The front door was locked with a padlock for 10 hryvnia. The lock was not embedded in the door, but hung on a nailed wooden plank (I figured that if desired, a child could remove this plank with a lock). The inner door was locked with a latch, but there was a twisted nail inside the hook. Such a "lock" can be opened from the outside if you press the door slightly.
The room had an old dirty walkway, a writing table with 2 out of 3 drawers, 2 double beds and 3 chairs. There was no closet or clothes hooks.
I was completely alone in the hostel for the first 2 days (although I kind of booked the penultimate place) and there was no hot water for these 2 days. Due to the microscopic size of the shower, I had to choose for a long time who would go swimming today - me or my 2 towels (we just couldn't fit together). The shower was also leaking heavily.
The hotel staff did not appear at the hostel at all, so no one was engaged in cleaning, changing the bed or repairing the shower for a long time.
With the appearance of other visitors, it turned out that the hostel did not have the promised kitchen, hair dryer and Wi-Fi (the router was simply turned off). Changing the bed linen once every 3 days also turned out to be a fiction.
On the eve of the New Year, the usual passage to the hostel - the gate between the hotel and my "house" was closed. They left the gate open, near which there were garbage cans (these garbage cans were my view from the window). And all this so that the poor students from the hostel do not catch the eye of the hotel and restaurant customers.
So, the only good things in this hostel are the Euro windows (not all rooms close well), wide window sills and other residents who will share a sandwich, a hairdryer, and an iron, but there is no merit of the hostel in this.
All 4 days in Leohostel I had 2 feelings: fear and disgust. I strongly advise against it.

The hotel is so-so, but for such money it is normal.
