The only reason why I have the breakfast at 1 is because I left very early so I missed it. I can’t review breakfast as I didnt stay long for it. This was my first experience staying at a hostel & it was great. The only thing is that my sheets were pretty uncomfortable as I kept itching throughout the night. There were some stains on the wall as I was on the top bunker. The experience itself was great & Xavier the staff that checked me in was very helpful.
