Great location near a myriad of public transit options, breakfast was always the same but a solid start to the day with it being included, and generally a clean and fun vibe throughout the hostel. The biggest drawback during our stay specifically was the elevator going out of service during the 2nd or 3rd day of our stay and remaining broken, and we were were staying on the 6th floor.

Being my first experience in a hostel, please consider my comments with a degree of caution. However, I believe there are aspects that could have enhanced my comfort during the stay. Enjoyed: - Charging station and light above bunkbed. - Water-saving system in showers. - Showers and bathrooms in hallways. - Kitchen with communal fridge and 3-compartment sink. - Hostel provided earplugs. - Mini hangout area next to the kitchen. Areas for Improvement: - Dirty shower in shared bedroom. - Dirty carpet in the shared bedroom. - Shower in the hallway lacked shelves and places to hang towels and clothing. - Unappealing sink on the toilet (it was cute, though). - Room damage policies in shared rooms could be clearer and include a way to identify responsible parties.

The manager upgraded our room for a private bathroom for free which was super nice. I only stayed one night, but I felt safe. I loved the location as i was very central to downtown, and walkable to nearby public transit. The room was a lot cleaner than I expected, especially the bed looked and felt very clean! The common areas looked cozy & nice to hangout in. I would stay again & recommend to friends!
