great place to stay if you're travelling solo! i was staying in a all women dorm, and the room was very clean and well ventilated, which was definitely nice with this beginni of summer weather. the breakfast was very simple (bagels, cereals and/or apples and bananas), but it was quite nice to be able to munch a little bit for free in the morning :) well located and sound proof, there was a party across the street at a bar but i couldn't hear anything from my room!
