Perfect and quirky

The staff was super welcoming and friendly. It was comfortable and perfect location. If you’re looking for a 5 star resort probably don’t book here, but if you’re down for a new experience go for it!

I wish i gave this place a chance years earlier

If you like meeting new people - this is the place to be. Memories for life. If you are a sensitive sleeper, look somewhere else. I loved this place and wish i could stay longer but the hostel only allow you to stay for a maximum of 14 days. You build friendships so fast

Not very clean

Room was not very clean. There were stains on the sheets and towels. It was an unpleasant experience. Did not expect a lot for a hostel, but expected some basic cleanliness.

This is a hostel, so if you want 4 stars go somewhere else. The property could use quite a bit of TLC, but the linens and rooms were clean. The staff were awesome and the overall vibe of the hostel was exactly what I hoped and more. The staff do fun nights and simple meals. Overall I really enjoyed my stay.
