The room for 4 was very small. Only one person could move around comfortably at a time, but the bathroom was kept clean. The only window for our room opened onto the deck (enclosed so no view) so there wasn't much privacy if the window was open which we needed to open since it was very warm. There are three... more

I had a very positive experience staying in this hostel. Though the cost of a private room was a bit more than we would have wanted to pay, it ended up being worth it.

DIdn't see a lot of people but the place seemed pretty low key. It was in a good location although it was a walk away from most attractions whether it be shopping, restaurants, bars. There... more
