We looked up some hostel on internet. Then we went to find it according to the instructions. It was very difficult. After a long time we found the street, but could not find the hostel. People on the street did not know. No wonder, without realizing it I was at the door of it (literally 2 metres), and was asking again. No sign, no plate saying it is a hostel.

There were lots of things to do, arrange, some paperwork, go to bank, meet friends, families - all this in different places.
