They have a bed at knee level in front of 2 bathrooms in a 6 bed dorm. NO ONE. Should have to sleep there. Never mind that the bed had a non working outlet! It was plugged in, but I had dead devices by morning time and missed my alarm. Should really be testing these things out for travellers. Bathroom needs to be cleaned more often aswell. Floor was completely dusty

It is clean but so big it feels industrial. Waiting line to check in was long! They do not have any food so make sure to eat before you go back to the hostel in the evening. Location convenient but maybe a bit shady late at night.

This is a hostel so it doesn’t have some of the amenities of a hotel but it was very nice. We were a family of seven traveling and we had plenty of space in our room. We felt very comfortable and it was nice and quiet. I would recommend this place!
