8/10 Very good

Safe and central
As far as hostels go this was lovely. Included basic ammenities such as shared bathroom, kitchen and hang out area. All ammenities were very clean and modern. Staff were helpful. Beds featured curtains for privacy, however very noisy with 5 other room mates - standard for a hostel I guess.

This hostel was great!! Clean with friendly staff, good common areas and a rooftop space and bar. Dorm rooms had AC and curtains on each bed. Hot water and fast wifi.

6/10 Good

The 8-bed room is not what is shown. There are now curtains on the beds at the time that I stayed in June 2021, so the photos are misleading and means less privacy than expected. Staff was also a bit of a mess. I was checked in with a bed upstairs and then moved twice more because they couldn't figure out where to put me (ummm make a reservation chart?).

Perfect stay
My stay at the hostel was great! Location is Great. The rooms were clean and tidy and the beds even have curtains. The mattress is a bit noisy but that’s not a big deal. Great rooftop and drinks. The stuff was very helpful and lovely. Would recommend!
