ENTER HOSTEL
One of the cheapest accommodations in Kyrenia, 1.3 km northwest of the Old Port. Pleasant rooms with balcony and air-conditioning.
Also known as the "New Kyrenia Hostel", this small hostel is located in a new building, 1 km northwest of the central traffic circle. It's one of the cheapest ways to sleep in Kyrenia, and the rooms are pleasant, with balcony and air-conditioning. The two shared kitchens include everything you need to prepare your own breakfast (tea, coffee, eggs, cereals...). Friendly staff. But it's pretty noisy in the evenings in summer, and the sanitary facilities don't always work. No parking facilities.

I stayed in this hostel in the late Aug for 3 nights. When I checked-in, the lady in the reception told me that the air-conditioning is only available in the evening, I thought that was acceptable. However, in the first night, I was woken up by heat in around 2.30 am. I found the air-con was off, but cannot find controller to turn it on. I tried to keep myself calm and peace so that I can forget the heat and sleep. After I dont know how long, maybe 1 hour, The air-con was on and I fall asleep again.
In the second day, around 11 pm, the air-con was still off, I told a young staff, and she said the air-con was turned off by her boss, she will tell her my requests. At around 0am, the air-con started and I quickly falled into sleep. However, around 2:30 am, I was woke up by heat again and wait about 1 hour for the air-con to resume my sleep.
In the third day, I complained to the boss/manager in person, she insisted that it is not possible to let air-con work all night(I requested for 7 hours only), due to the electricity bill. I proposed several work-arounds, but all rejected:
1. I proposed to pay her 200 lira to let the air-con in my dorm room run 7 hours during my sleep. Rejected.
2. I proposed to rearrange air-con schedule, put together all time slots into sleeping time. Rejected.
3. I asked her to lend me a fan in her office, rejected due to some silly reasons.
4. I told her, when the air-con was scheduled off, the windows are all closed and that makes me feel suffocated, she said I can wake up to open the windows. (I have to keep wake up to open/close windows?). Even that, I asked her the schedule, she refused to tell me.
However, she DID provided some "useful" suggestions:
1. Come to Cyprus only in winter, like Nov, or December.
2. Go to the beach and swim. (In the mid-night where the beach is 3km away???)
Anyway, after 20 mins communication, I failed to persuade her changing anything.
In the evening at the same day, around 10:30pm, all guests in the dorm complained about air-conditioning, so, I sent her a message telling her about the situation. In about 30 mins, the air-con was turned on. I was woken up by heat again in 3:30 am, then it was on maybe 1 hour after, on 8am when I checked out, it was still on. Looks like the host prolonged the air-con time.
