I like how everything was local stores nearby. The property was good. Clean. My roommate was loud on top bed & kept lights on while laying in room the last night of stay.

It was my first time traveling solo, as well as my first time staying at a hostel, and it was an incredible experience! I felt comfortable, safe, and met lots a great people!

Disappointing

Honestly, the custom locks were such a cute touch. Made the obligation of getting a lock a lot less obligatory. Great souvenir.

The common room was amazing to rest, and I loved that the hostel organized events where you could meet new people. The room was comfortable with curtains for privacy. There is a complimentary breakfast! Nothing

Helpful staff, nice freebies, great vibe and location. They should drop their events coordinator sfhostelparty. A dinner event was disorganized and slow and the coordinator was pushy.

I like the location. I liked the the artistic and imaginative design and presence of the place. They give you breakfast it is okay. The staff is very kind and helpful. It is a reasonable price. I liked most things wish I could stay longer than a week. Mostly I like the place.

I like this hostel a lot I’ve stayed for multiple days. They are clean and the staff is nice and friendly. They have free breakfast and sometimes free dinner. They have activities and events available so you can meet new people and explore the city. One of the best hostels I’ve stayed in. I like the privacy curtains in the rooms. Bathrooms are shared but they have a cleaning crew that cleans every morning.

Exceptionally clean rooms and bathrooms. Very helpful staff on reception who went above and beyond. Kitchen and common room was amazing and fully stocked with everything you need. my bed was not overly comfortable but was good enough. Rooms did get quite hot and the very loud fans didn't help much. Struggling to find bad things at all the overall experience for the price was really good. Definitely would return again.
