I discovered this place by accident back in late autumn when I was having a break from uni. For some reason, I can't shake the place off, it left my girlfriend and I a bit jaded.
I think this place is supposed to be a political refuge or something - a front in the fight against the New World Order!
It smells quite bad so dont go in your clean holiday clothes or they will reek until you return home!
The second hand screen-printed clothing is dirty, cheap and unwearable. I haven't actually ever seen worse screen-printed clothing than this, so it's worth a look for this reason alone!
You can also pick up for next to nothing DVDs about 9/11 and NWO etc, which you can download from the net but can get here to save you time.
On the plus side, you can get a cheap drink there (coffee about 1 euro and a bottle of beer is about 1.50) and the WLAN is free, and at this time of year I guess it's somewhere to get out of the cold whilst planning to go somewhere else.
Whilst the rest of the world is moving on, here is an oasis of rebellion or something. But looking at the place I could not tell if that was a good thing or a bad thing.
The regulars must have taken the red pill, go see for yourself.
