"Wouldn’t recommend.I didn’t enjoy my stay at all. The common area sitting areas cushion and pillows are dirty.

"The location is great and close to major attractions. My stay overall was decent, but the bathroom situation was not ideal. There was no shelves to put my toiletries and clothes. Additionally, the Wi-Fi was a major downside. It was really slow and often unreliable. I ended up using my phone data to do my work. "

"The hostel itself was fine. Pretty clean. The staff were nice. It’s just unfortunate that I only stayed 1 night out of the 5 I paid for because a few guests were beyond unhygienic. The entire room reeked of their stench and the staff couldn’t get me into another dorm. I know that’s a hard issue for staff to deal with and it wasn’t their fault. "
