Loved the whole atmosphere. We are in our early 20’s and made tons of new friends from around the world. It was definitely the place to be.

8/10 Very good

Convenient bustling place to stay
Our room was very clean and had great A/C. The shared bathrooms were also clean and nice. The hostel has a bar/restaurant that offers breakfast, lunch, and dinners. It gets pretty packed on weekend nights and you can definitely hear the music in your room - luckily this wasn’t much of an issue due to the new 9PM closing restrictions. There is a nice common area with a pool, tables, indoor TV area, and a well-equipped kitchen. The location is also very convenient.

Not what I booked
I booked 2 double queen beds but when i arrived they said it wasn't available. They tried to put me in a room with 2 bunk beds but I told them i needed a big bed. I ended up in a room with a double bed and bunk beds. Unfortunately still had to pay the same price.
