Nice place for a hostel, there can be some questionable people in the area outside the place at times but it’s more so the city itself. Would certainly stay here again when I return

It was my first time in a hostel and needless to say, I loved it. The bed was clean, loved the kitchen area and restrooms were separate and extremely tidy. A few notes might be either adding curtains for the top bunks as well or maybe a small light like the fans. Thanks again. Enjoy your visit.

Loud music playing until 2 AM from the bar downstairs. No lights in the bunk. Rather dirty, but great location.
