I booked the 8-bed female ensuite. I really didn't have any high expectations. But to my pleasant surprise both the room and bathroom were neat and smelled good. Good water flow. Neat white beddings. And the roommates were respectful of each other. Even though you walk into some loud music at the reception, the rooms are kind of insulated. They are quiet and soothing and the music doesn't filter through. It's a superb location too. Easy to find food, shops and transportation. I had a good experience.
The hostel was ok but the room was awful. The windows did not open all the way allowing air to come in the room the drains in the shower and sink were very slow to drain the space was cramped
