Michie Hostel

Nothing

Everything the neighborhood was sketchy the people staying there was sketchy the staff was horrible took almost 45 minutes just to get in

Very comfortable very welcoming very clean very quiet just as I remembered it from three years prior love michies

Convenience

It was all great

I love hostels and I have appropriate expectations for a hostel such as this with low rating. It was basically what I expected. The room was clean. That’s about all I wanted from this. The rest of it was tolerable — the noise from the nightclub downstairs, the dirty bathrooms — well, you get what you pay for.

Do not book here. There’s another hostel in town that is nice and will *not* steal your security deposit; stay there. My experience with the actual stay was good (given that it is an affordable hostel with low ratings) but they did not refund the $100 security deposit. I have repeatedly asked for it via both text and email (after checking out nearly 1 month ago) and have been given all kinds of polite excuses. Note that there were no claims of damage, they have acknowledged that the $100 is owed to me but are saying they’ll do it ASAP and then simply not doing it. I’m now disputing it with my credit card. At best, it’s a very unorganized and unprofessional organization; but more likely these are unscrupulous scammers who are counting on you not noticing the theft of your security deposit.
