"The hostel was clean, safe, and comfortable, and I was really impressed by the quality for the price and location! They provided everything you need. The bathrooms were spotless and still felt private despite being shared. The staff were very nice and helpful. I left my kindle in the room by accident, and they shipped it to me across the country. This is a great option if you're looking for something affordable and don't need extra amenities!"
