8/10 Very good

Almost Perfect
This hostel is so close to being beyond amazing. The location is great, with a short walk to subway access. There's also a decent variety of restaurants nearby. It was very clean, from the front entrance to the dorm rooms. I appreciated the cafe with reasonable prices (the food was almost all good, the eggs were a little rough as they're reheated but for the price and convenience it's nothing a little salt and pepper can't make manageable). Staff were all very friendly and helpful. The only issues that I had were for one, the twice that I had to use the handicapped shower stall during my stay due to availability, the water didn't get any better than lukewarm. The other showers got very warm. I hate that the only shower option that someone may have isn't comfortable. Secondly, the beds were insanely hard. I woke up at 4:30 on my last day because my back was screaming in pain, and I don't have back issues. It's manageable with enough pillows and blankets to cushion, but it's really uncomfortable. I absolutely loved the value and the location. If I was working with a limited budget, I wouldn't be afraid to stay here again. However, if I have the budget for something else then I'm going to choose something else, just for the sleep quality. I really appreciate all of the extras offered, but at the end of the day I'm paying for a place to sleep.

Good for a quick one night trip.
Bring shoes for the shared showers and ear plugs. It kind of feels like a college dorm. Lots of young people. Good for a one night trip, but definitely not for those who want more privacy.

I have NEVER been in a hostel before. I saw the movie Hostel and ever since then I had a stigma around them. I went to this place and honestly really amazing. People from all over, it was always busy at the times I was awake (not sure about anything past midnight and before 6) and there were always people so I felt super safe. I felt comfortable in the bed they were super clean. I don’t even like staying in places where high turnover for beds just because of dirtiness usually and bugs but this one was nicely setup clean staff was freaking fantastic.

Everything clean and well organized, they encourage the socializing of the guests and offer a lot of activities to do with them for free, besides a cafeteria with various options, vending machines, laundry and shared kitchen. Got the shared room and everyone was polite. The only con is the only one elevator for all the building, can took a while.
