First time at a Hostel and of course had that second thought mindset before checking in. I could not have been more wrong! Best stay in a city have ever had! From holding bags for early arrivals, to floor 2, the lounge area, I was pleasantly surprised! Met some really awesome humans and the whole experience was super awesome and positive! Can't wait to go back.

Things that you would expect from sharing a room with others, moving around, snoring, checking in late. Not a big deal at all and to be honest, everything else far outweighed any of this. Cannot beat the experience and the value!

With kitchen, free coffee, front desk really helpful, good location

No one is washing their dishes; two third of the mug went missing so I have to drink coffee with bowl as I couldn't find any in the morning; dining area is terrible that whole night during my stay
